In its first incarnation Artefacture was a graphic t-shirt brand. Our inaugural release included two marquee designs: “Design Will Save the World” and “I Will Pay For Good Design”. Profiles by influential and trend conscious blogs like Josh Spear, Core77 and Cool Hunting helped establish Artefacture as the go to t-shirt for designers and creatives alike. We did countless art shows in San Francisco and twice attended the Pool Streetwear Trade Show in Las Vegas.

Artefacture t-shirts sold in museum shops across the US including the SF Museum of Modern Art and the Museum of Contemporary Art in Chicago. We shipped our graphic tees to customers all over the world and we were carried by independent fashion boutiques in Boston, LA, NY, SF as well as in the UK and Europe.
