‘Always Design a Thing by’ — Eliel Saarinen Quote Tee | Wear Words Typographic Statement Tee — Oversized Tee

“Always design a thing by considering it in its next larger context.” Eliel Saarinen taught that a chair belongs to a room, the room to a house, and the house to a city — nothing designed alone. As head of the Cranbrook Academy through the 1930s and ’40s he passed that lesson to a generation of American design: his son Eero, Charles and Ray Eames, Florence Knoll, and Harry Bertoia all came through his studio.

**AS Colour 5082 “Faded Bone” — Oversized Tee (Cream finish).** 100% carded cotton, heavyweight 240 gsm, garment-dyed — each tee fades a little differently, so no two are identical. Oversized, boxy relaxed fit, dropped shoulders, wide twin-stitched ribbed neck, side-seamed, pre-shrunk (size down for a less roomy look). Care: machine wash cold inside-out with like colors, do NOT bleach, do NOT tumble dry (line dry in the shade to protect the garment dye), cool iron inside-out (never iron the print).
