I'm seeking an exclusive and original T-shirt design focused on mental health awareness, inspired by the attached World Mental Health Day 2026 theme poster.
The design will feature the quote:
“Every Experience Has A Voice”
The concept should reflect the 2026 theme of lived experiences, real voices, being heard, and creating meaningful change. The overall design should feel empowering, inclusive and hopeful while remaining stylish and wearable.
Requirements:
Main quote: “Every Experience Has A Voice”
Colour theme: Blue and white
The blue should preferably be inspired by the blue tones used in the attached World Mental Health Day 2026 poster, particularly the deep navy/space blue and rich Earth-blue tones
Design style: Typographic
Typography: Bold, impactful, contemporary and highly readable
Additional graphics: Simple geometric or abstract mental-health/lived-experience elements
Possible visual concepts may include voices, sound waves, speech/conversation, interconnected lines, human connection, abstract faces or figures, individual stories, or other creative interpretations of lived experiences
The design should be original and not directly copy the graphics, logo or layout of the reference poster
The final design should look good both as an awareness campaign T-shirt and as a standalone casual T-shirt
Deliverables:
Print-ready AI, PDF and high-resolution PNG
Editable/vector source file
Mockups in three T-shirt styles: retro T-shirt, long-sleeve round neck, and Muslimah
Front and back mockups
Preferably 2–3 initial concepts before finalising the selected design
Creative Direction:
The quote “Every Experience Has A Voice” should be the hero element of the design. The designer may creatively emphasise words such as “Experience” and “Voice” through differences in scale, weight, positioning or graphic treatment.
The design should communicate that everyone carries their own experiences and stories, and those experiences deserve to be heard.
The overall feeling should be:
Human • Inclusive • Hopeful • Empowering • Youthful • Contemporary • Wearable
Please avoid designs that are overly clinical, depressing or heavily reliant on generic mental-health imagery such as brains, puzzle pieces or medical symbols.
We are looking for a creative interpretation of mental health and lived experience rather than a literal representation of mental illness.
Reference:
Please refer to the attached World Mental Health Day 2026 poster for theme and colour inspiration only.
Ideal skills and experience:
Strong typography skills
Experience creating T-shirt/apparel designs
Proficiency in Adobe Illustrator or equivalent vector software
Ability to create realistic apparel mockups
Strong understanding of print-ready artwork
Creativity in incorporating abstract/geometric elements into typography
