Collegiate-style tee celebrating Columbus College of Art and its visual legacy—perfect for alumni, artists, and design school enthusiasts.
The story behind this design
Block lettering in deep maroon and black creates a classic varsity-style graphic across a white tee. The words 'CCAD' appear in large, bold letters with red outlines and black shadowing, while 'Art and Design' sits directly beneath in an athletic, serif-influenced typeface. The treatment is unmistakably inspired by collegiate apparel—the kind of logo design you'd see on a sweatshirt or campus store tee. The color combination of maroon and black against white is sharp and timeless, evoking school pride and creative heritage. There's nothing trendy or ironic about the design; it's earnest and straightforward, celebrating visual learning and creative community with genuine institutional pride.
Who it's for
Ideal for current and former students of Columbus College of Art, faculty, and staff. Perfect as an alumni gift or a wearable connection to the school's community. Great for art school enthusiasts, creative professionals who studied there, or supporters of art and design education. Makes an excellent gift for anyone celebrating their education or their connection to the design and arts world.
