The Science of T-Shirt Design @ T-lab

Posted: 03 Dec 2010 10:05 AM PST

There’s going back to basics and then there’s going back to basics. T-lab are here, to put it as bluntly as possible, to cut the metaphorical crap and boil down t-shirt and hoodie design to a visually sub-atomic level. If you’re looking for beautiful illustrative meanderings, bawdy humour, cute factor, or anything you’ve come to love and expect from t-shirt design then exit the T-lab now. If on the other hand you have a penchant for the abstract, classic European minimalist design  and a cool calm theme for your collection then don the proverbial white coat and safety glasses, and step into the hermetically sealed environment of this uniquely experimental UK fashion brand.

Although their tees are on sale at a slightly pricey £25 each, they do use traditional screen print methods for ultra crisp designs and very high quality shirts from ethical suppliers. What’s more you’ll be very pleased to know I’ve managed to wrangle a very generous discount for all you lucky lucky readers :D Get 15% off all T-lab products by entering the code buytees15 at the checkout!

2SB are celebrating the season of cheer in their own twisted way with a chance to win a limited edition signed screen print of one of their best selling tees Rest in Pieces. Usually you’d have to fork out £95 for this, which is screen printed on some very festive silver metallic paper!

New T-Shirt Community – Prawspektiv

Prawspetiv - A New Tee Community

I don’t know much about Prawspektiv.com but they seem a friendly enough bunch, based in Europe (I’m guessing France by the language options) and offering up a bloody enormous $5000 prize for their first design winner. The contest starts on the 11th of February 2011 so there’s’ plenty of time to think up some genius designs – heh. I do know this – they want very detailed designs – so you’d better get practising! If you want to know more then your best bet is to follow them on Twitter or fan them at Facebook. Until then this flyer will have to keep you satisfied :0
