One Color Only T-Shirt Design Contest

Design By Hümans Presents, One Color Only T-Shirt Design Contest

Design By Humans is well known for its printing capabilities and expressive tees. Details pop and prints explode across tees in a spectrum of color. Well we decided for the one color contest it was time to give you rowdy bunch a challenge. One Color Only is the theme but we do not expect you to go simple, show us your most beautiful art and coolest concepts. One color is all you are permitted but that color can be any color from the millions available. Use one neon on black for a loud tee, one subtle color on a similar colored blank for a sophisticated tee or go classic monochrome colors on either black or white. Three winners will be selected. You can submit standard, oversized and all-over styles of printing and you can select any color t-shirt as your canvas. You can only use one color, use it wisely.
