Apartments & Inflation Buttery Soft Tee

Apartments & Inflation turns New York’s housing crisis into a familiar seal—part civic emblem, part economic warning label. Borrowing the visual language of official city insignia, the design replaces stability with tension: stacked apartment blocks climb upward while a caduceus-like symbol twists through the center, suggesting that housing, money, and survival have become inseparable.

Printed in a clean single-color green on a white tee, the graphic reads crisp and authoritative at a glance, then reveals its satire on closer inspection. It’s equal parts parody and documentation—a wearable snapshot of modern New York life where rent rises faster than wages and the city keeps moving anyway.

This version is printed on an ultra-soft, lightweight white tee with a buttery hand-feel and smooth drape. The laundered 60/40 ring-spun cotton/polyester sueded jersey delivers all-day comfort, making the message easy to wear even when the reality isn’t.
