Element x Patrick Schmidt ‘The Guardians’ Collection

 

 Element have come together with young London based, Welsh illustrator Patrick Schmidt on a unique collaborative board series dubbed the "Guardians" collection. As part of the brands perspective project, which showcases work from Element advocates, renowned guest artists & up and coming talent, the designs draw inspiration from traditional woven Tibetan Tiger rugs which are thought to provide the user protection when meditating. Each deck features the spirit animals of the respective rider - for Westgate you've got the bobcat, Nick Garcia’s a coyote and Julian Davidson a snake, all of which stick to the same colourful, cartoony style, laid out in the shape of an animal rug across deck series and a small run of tees. 

  The Element x Patrick Schmidt “Guardians” collection by Patrick Schmidt is available now over at elementbrand.com
