The History of Tetramode

Origins of Tetramode: A Journey with Samuel Farrand

Tetramode, the brainchild of its visionary founder Samuel Farrand, traces its roots back to his earliest days. Even in childhood, Samuel possessed a profound connection to clothing design, a bond that would shape his destiny. A cherished memory stands out—a tender recollection of a 3 or 4-year-old Samuel proudly displaying his new shirt to an elderly lady at a local laundromat.

As Samuel navigated through Junior High and High School, his affinity for clothing remained unwavering, always leaning towards bold and expressive attire. A pivotal moment occurred in 1996 when he found his tribe within the Grateful Dead & Phish community—a discovery that resonated deeply. This marked the beginning of a lifelong quest.

The Dream Unfolds:

Samuel's journey traversed his 20s, filled with a persistent dream—to establish his own store, a haven for unique and expressive clothing, alongside other intriguing curiosities. In 2010, with his close friend Joe Croft, Samuel embarked on a journey of hand-stenciling thrift shop finds, meticulously painting his designs. This laborious process birthed their distinctive vision.

Enter Technological Resonance:

In 2011, the advent of DTG printing provided a breakthrough, allowing Samuel to manifest his ideas in striking digital detail. Spring of 2013 saw Samuel take to Etsy as "The Art of Samuel Farrand," introducing his creations to the world. The subsequent arrival of Sublimation printing in 2014 led to exponential growth, propelling him beyond Etsy with an impressive 10,000 sales in just a few years.

An Evolution of Identity:

2016 marked a pivotal shift as Samuel adopted the moniker "Blissings," utilizing his original domain www.samuelfarrand.com to launch his clothing venture on Shopify. The name evolved further in 2017 when Samuel opted for his own name, Samuel Farrand, to resonate with a wider audience. The journey toward simplicity reached its pinnacle in 2018, birthing the name "Tetramode." This name, evoking timelessness and distinction, encapsulated Samuel's desire to forever link his creations to this unique identity.

A Decade of Creativity and Innovation:

Fast forward to 4/19/2023—an iconic milestone—the 10 Year Anniversary of Tetramode. A decade of relentless creativity, unwavering passion, and the pursuit of visionary design. Tetramode's journey mirrors Samuel's own—a story of growth, transformation, and the quest for an everlasting connection.
