The Threadless loves Threadless competition threw out a challenge to create something new, something fresh, something original . With such a highly subjective objective, it was always going to be an impossible task to create a design that everyone would like. Consequently, this competition saw a huge number of diverse entries, each with their own take on the themeless theme, and produced a heap of awesome and very printable designs.
My take on the challenge was to push the boundaries of the print restrictions, like the size and in particular the 4 colour rule. I had a shot at the size with
Surfers Paradise, but it turned out I was lucky to get the design accepted in the first place, let alone considered for a print, because of the size issue. Psychedelic Peacock was my attempt to push the limitations of the 4 colour rule in an original way, and I feel I did so.
Whether or not you believe the Peacock is deserving of the win is left up to debate - a futile one as we have seen so far. As much as I would have loved to have fulfilled everyone's expectations of this competition, I'm afraid all I could do within reason was aim to fulfill mine, which I happily did. Needless to say, I'm incredibly stoked other people, not to mention Threadless, appreciate and enjoy the design. A huge thank you to Threadless and everyone for the kind comments and support for the design. I hope you enjoy the tee!
Cheers,
Simon
