Start the Day Right T-Shirt

Start the Day Right T-Shirt

June 2020, we ran a t-shirt competition to show our support of the creatives in our local community. The arts sector – much like the hospitality industry – has been hit hard by the events of COVID-19. As you may have noticed, projects have been put on hold (or cancelled) and there’s been very little support from the government.

It has been a challenging time, to say the least.

We wanted to show our support of the arts industry by running a competition!

So, we set out a challenge for creatives to design a t-shirt for us! The winners will then have their design printed on a t-shirt by Project Print Co. We’ll then sell their design on our website and in-store with ALL PROFITS going straight to the designer. Through this competition we’re hoping it brings awareness to the creative whilst also giving them a source of income.

The t-shirt design had to follow these rules:

1. Involve coffee and/or tea
2. Be black and white
3. Nothing crass or offensive
4. And, made by you of course!

We were overwhelmed with the response we received! So many incredible t-shirt designs. We would like to say a big thank you to the many creatives that sent in their coffee/tea design. It was such a pleasure receiving your unique t-shirt design and reading the kind messages that came along with them.

Boy, it was tough choosing the winners! It was a long process deciding which designs to go with. You can check out more designs via our instagram @karvancoffee

This design is one of the winners of our t-shirt competition.

Thank you, Melannie! Check more of her work out via @melannie.lai

Simple, purposeful, and fact. We love this design for its minimalism and clean aesthetic. We like to think a cup of Karvan coffee or Pure Tea sets everyone off on the right foot. We love your style Melannie, thank you so much for entering!

These shirts are available to pre-order now and will arrive by the end of June. We’re printing only 25 of each design and will be increasing supply depending on the demand of the t-shirt.

Support local and spread the word of this incredible designer!
