BURGER KING STUDIO

for parts of your body other than your mouth

First the president-elect tells me I have earned a puppy. Now Burger King’s tellin’ me I have earned the chance to make a t-shirt with six icons of my choosing. This is at least 4x better than the last time I decorated my clothes at Burger King. With Whopper debris.

The Burger King Studio is a collaboration between Burger King and a team of artists and designers. With their powers combined, they’ve put together a “palette” of 23 different graphics you can slap onto 5 varieties of torso cover. (Question: anyone else seeing Gatorade logo-like lightning bolts and Basquiat-esque crowns?)

Alternately, you can hit the randomize button, which will present a series of suspiciously non-random designs, or pick up some prefabulous shirts at their store.

Now, this is all well and good, except they’re each $25 (plus shippin’) and the Dutch designers at Experimental Jetset did the whole ampersand jam first — see below.

But Burger King Studio’s gone live, so now you can expect to see its spawn on the street. Look for this one in particular — a lovable monstrosity by our non-designer Senator Bolton:

A PUPPY?
