Layout & Composition

Creating a great design includes organizing the elements (layout) and creatively arranging them (composition) to communicate your message clearly. Our design team has assembled several rules of thumb to give you a good start when designing t-shirts, hoodies, or other apparel.

Create Focus

Your shirt design may contain several elements, but there must be one primary focus. The focal point is your most important statement!

Keep It Simple

Applying simplicity is among the most powerful ways a design can be improved. The human eye can only process a certain amount of information at once; too many details can make the design difficult to absorb. So limiting the number of images, graphical elements, and pieces of copy will often improve a t-shirt design.

Be Complimentary
