Burn Suburbia

I think we can expect some good things from Burn Suburbia, a new t-shirt company backed by a neat (and a little lengthy– sorry) concept: to work with designers from all over the world to create shirts that creatively encompass unique aspects of each individual place and culture in a rebellion against the general blah-ness of suburbia. The first two shirts represent collaborations with designers sub.aura (London) and Gislene Mayumi Matsui (Tokyo; shown), and it looks like one for Phoenix, the location of Burn Suburbia (and an old hometown of mine) is coming soon. I like that this little start-up has such a big and positive purpose behind it; most people that are fed up with the endless and depressing suburbia of Phoenix don’t start tee-shirt companies– they just move.
