About The Pleasure of Leisure

The Pleasure of Leisure is a sunny lifestyle brand inspired by a life lived well––rest, exploration, and creative living for a more purposeful way of life. An invitation to escape to the rhythm of endless leisure and limitless daydreaming, the brands' vision is woven together by a love of travel, nature, art, nature and community.

With the rituals of day-to-day enjoyment, their curated collection of books, leisurewear, sensory travel guides, and inspiring Lovers of Leisure conversations––is your passport for escapism, each waiting to be explored.

Founded by Milou Neelen of Hôtel Magique and Anna Pihan in 2021, they discovered a shared dream: designing and publishing books as an expression of their creativity, and so they set sail on an adventure. This journey led to the launch of the self-published book, The Pleasure of Leisure, which quickly sold out its first edition and garnered esteemed features in Vogue, AD Spain, Forbes, and more. In this book, they share a sensory dialogue through photography, art and words as poetry inspired by faraway destinations and leisurely moments. .
