About my design

by greenttentacle
This greenttentacle and Frickinawesome collab is based off the video and lyrics from Coldplay's "The Scientist".



We wanted to convey the altered sense of time and movement the video has in the design, as you can read the progression of the story from the front to the back of the tee or vice-a-versa. But just like the video, the shirt has the ending on the back which in reality is the beginning of the journey.



Nobody said it was easy

It's such a shame for us to part

Nobody said it was easy

No one ever said it would be so hard

Oh, take me back to the start




Check out the video here.



Thanks to Manos for the flash template. :)

Maybe I shouldn't admit it but I don't know the song! I do know that this design can get you thinking and evokes an engaging mood.
