Element Emerald Launch with Thomas Campbell
Element Europe launched it’s new ‘Emerald Collection‘ in Berlin, Germany on Thursday night. Element Emerald Advocate Thomas Campbell was invited to create a 4-meter wide wall piece to celebrate the occasion.
Even before the 6pm start people were queuing up outside and throughout the evening the ‘Made my Day’ gallery hosted hundreds of visitors keen to see the new collection and Thomas’ wall piece.
High Snobiety filmers and photographers were on hand to cover the event, so stay tuned for the video and photo gallery! In the meantime check out these few photos below and also Thomas Campbells’ website to see more of his work.
