Boston’s design firm PRAUD has launched a new line of products, amongst them t-shirts, under the name of “FIGUREGROUND.”

FIGUREGROUND is a design project, where research is merged with apparel in order to promote specific metropolitan capitals of the worlds influence. This product was created with the intent to produce graphic information that would engage tourists as well as residents in an interactive dialog that educates people about their city.

Cities they currently feature include New York, London, Chicago, Paris, Los Angeles, Amsterdam and Boston. They also have a tee that features all of the main cities called “World Cities.”

Tees are available for $24 via FIGUREGROUND.
