T-shirt Design Brief

Design a t-shirt, front (2 styles - full-front and pocket graphic) and back, for an engineering design contest for undergraduate students. They are young, and want something interesting, but as engineers, they also tend to be a bit traditional.

Colors: Two - three color artwork.
Graphics: Our logo is attached, along with a sample of our 2023 shirt, front and back. We would like to feature that it is our 35th year.
Front: Design a full-front graphic for students and a pocket design for faculty and judges (adults)
Back: Arrange a space to creatively include the names of 30 teams, along with the task they solved. I prefer to incorporate their university names into a design that reflects our logo. (Such as placing all team names within a leaf shape, or the electric bolt--or placing them in an interesting pattern of your own).

The back also needs to acknowledge sponsors, with sizes varying according to sponsorship level (this year we have 2 diamond, 3 platinum, 2 silver, and 4 iron). For the first mock-up, you can use this team name and task number, and copy it 30 times: Michigan Technological University. Task 3
Task 3: Mitigating the Effects of Wildfires on Watersheds

We're open to new ideas! As you can see from uploaded examples, in 2020, we wrote out the full task name for each university, in 2023 we did not. For 2025 we have 10 more teams than we did back then, so how would you accommodate this? Any suggestions for communicating each team's project would be appreciated!

All artwork should be sufficiently fine and separated so that it doesn't turn out to be a big block of stiff plastic-feeling printing. These will be printed on a soft t-shirt (Gildan SoftStyle).

Attached please find:
1. Our 2025 Logo & Thread colors. Your design will be based off of that graphic. Somewhere on the shirt, we want the rectangle of "WERC ENVIRONMENTAL DESIGN CONTEST, NMSU COLLEGE OF ENGINEERING, as shown in the pdf.
2. Two samples of how we (very differently) incorporated all university's names into the graphic (2020 & 2023)

Target Market(s)

Environmental Engineering Undergraduate students. About half female and half male.

Industry/Entity Type

Environmental Engineering

Look and feel

Each slider illustrates characteristics of the customer's brand and the style your logo design should communicate.

Requirements

Must have

• Our graphic with the globe, water, lightning bolt, leaf.

Should not have

• Large blocks of ink (I like the shirt to be breathable and not plastic-y)
