Speak Softly and Carry a Big Horn
The man on this shirt certainly seems to live by that philosophy. I’m always intrigued by the visual representation of sound and this shirt definitely does a good job conceptualizing how sound waves might travel.
I also like the idea of having the man and the horn in black and white but the sound as vibrant shades of orange and yellow.
My only criticism is that I’m not overly fond of the clouds. The ones above and even parallel to the horn seem to ‘work’ for me, but the ones at the man’s waistlevel and below are distracting. It makes me think that the man must himself be standing in some kind of cloudy otherworld, which perhaps he is, but for me it takes away from the imagery with the horn.
Still, it’s a great concept and a sharp design from Imaginary Foundation.
