We are frontiers, explorers, immigrants, homesteaders, trailblazers, patriots
First and foremost we are Americans
We are proud of being United
We are proud of our States
We are proud of our country America
We are United States of America
As soon as you are asked to think of the name of your state, your brain is bound to think of numerous words that are wired in your mind based on your experiences and memories. Just like your fingerprints, every individual will have a unique set of words and colors that will be triggered by their state’s name.
If you were to focus on just three. Three words. Three colors. Think about the first three words that comes to mind. Think about the first three colors that comes to mind.
We asked these questions after our travels to each and every state we visited. And our company was formed to share the answers to those questions for each state.
Some of us called one of these fifty states our home through our entire lives…
Some of us had the privilege to live in more than a dozen through our entire lives…
Some of us were born in one and would like to retire in another…
No matter which one, at some point in our lives we were proud citizens of our states. Where we were born, where we went to kindergarten, high school, college, where we got our first job, fall in love, married, or ended up retiring in.
In all of those turning points in our lives, three colors and three words forever and indelibly were engraved in our minds and memories for those states
When we hop on the plane leaving that state
When we hop on the car leaving that state
When we hop on the boat leaving that state
Three words, three colors come with us.
A trace of powdered desert dust splattered on the background of a blue sky when you gallop away on your horse
A trail of snowflakes melting in numerous unique shapes mushed under as you ski away on your snowboard
A cloud of ocean droplets sprinkling on your tails when you surf away
Three words that constantly ring in our ears, fall from our lips, echoes in our memories
Three colors that forever engraves the eternal beauty each state embodies
We are a couple who loves each other dearly. Our love for each other is only matched by our passion for traveling, our appreciation of art, and our respect for history.
StatesMeant started with the love we have for our beautiful country and the passion we have for traveling and exploring all the beauties our states have to offer.
Our travels took us from the waters of Everglades to the mist of Evergreens, from the orange sunsets of Pacific to the golden sunrises of Atlantic and from the valleys of Grand Canyon to the summits of Grand Teton, from the glaciers of Mount Rainier to the granites of Mount Rushmore, from the shores of Great Lakes to the peaks of Great Sand Dunes…
We have been on the road since we first met four years ago. For every state we visited, we fell in love with the diversity of the beauties each state has to offer. For every state we visited, we dreamed about moving there one day. For every state we visited, we left with the fondest memories indelibly engraved in our minds. Tastes, sights, smells, and sounds… As unique and as diverse as our country. The people we met in each state summed all our experiences up the best for us. Their pride and passion for their states were matched only with our wonder for the greatness their state offered us.
We asked ourselves these questions: When we think of that state what three colors represent it the best? What three words sum that state up for us? and finally what does that state mean for us?
So we set out to share our love and passion for traveling through our country with the people of each state by asking them the question: What do your STATES MEAN for you? And we decided to bring our passions together: travel, art, history in one product that everyone will proudly wear. Our travels started with borderless MAPS. Our art is expressed with natural COLORS. Our memories are presented with succinct WORDS. Our styles are informed by impressionist DESIGN. Our T-shirts put all of them together: MAPS, COLORS, WORDS, DESIGN. So we call on all of you to:
Carry your badge of honor on your STATESMEANT
Share your feeling of belonging with your STATESMEANT
Impart your knowledge of USA through your STATESMEANT
Exude your pride of home in your STATESMEANT
Last but not least make a statement with your STATESMEANT
