As part of Landmark's year-long "A Year of Wisdom" campaign, where creative talents are brought in to reinvent the modern gentleman's shopping experience, renowned street artist Daniel Cordas was invited to Hong Kong to create one-off designs on luxury items from Landmark Men boutiques.
The young British artist became an overnight sensation when he posted his first custom-painted sneakers on Instagram. Now, his work can be seen on a host of international celebrities. For his trip to Hong Kong, Cordas created a collection around the theme four elements: earth, fire, water and air. We spoke to Cordas about his career highlights and what his dream canvas would be.

Why did you choose the four elements as your theme for your collection for Landmark?
Recently, I’ve been thinking about how we’re living in a world with lots of uncertainty, but the four elements are straightforward; they're the basis of life. One of my favourites is the umbrella from The Armoury I painted with a blue sky on the inside. People obviously use umbrellas on a rainy day, so it's my way of saying, "Look on the bright side of life."
