EDL T-Shirt Contest

Your design

  1. Please keep in mind that the design should be about languages, not countries. So please don't use flags or similar.
  2. You can use up to 3 colours.
  3. If you have versions using different colours, send all of them in one email, we will select the ones that we like the most.
  4. Keep in mind that we need a simple design that is not too complex or that has small details. This will increase printing quality.

EDL T-shirt contest winner 2021

The winner of the 2021 EDL T-shirt contest is Tímea Svetková from Slovakia. Congratulations!

"As a student of graphic design, I wanted to make something creative and simple at the same time. One of my first ideas was to create a mascot, that would perfectly capture this competition and what other animal than parrot? Parrot for me represents an animal that can talk in every single language, if you teach him. Under his wings he unites languages and therefore for me it represents unity the most. This competition was a great opportunity for me to make something meaningful in a modern artform."


Idea for school teachers: create a padlet for your class to show all designs. See this example from Cité scolaire du Couserans High school, Ariège, France.

We received many excellent creative designs this year – It is a shame we can only have one winner. Here are just some examples....

Az EDL póló verseny 2020-as győztese

A 2020-as EDL póló verseny győztese Catalina Maria Puebla Coenen  Spanyolországból. Gratulálunk!

"To make the design of this T-shirt, I was inspired by European languages which are symbolically lines that connect people by giving touches of glittering colours to our lives. I think the T-shirt fits perfectly with the philosophy of the competition."

Catalina Maria Puebla Coenen

EDL T-shirt contest winner 2019

The winner of the 2019 EDL T-shirt contest is Emilė Žandauskaitė from Vilnius Abraomas Kulvietis Classical Gymnasium/ Lithuania. Congratulation!

"This task was a completely new experience for me as I got acquainted with modern forms of art. As a result it encouraged me to keep looking for more as well as setting my creativity free. I drew what I felt and what seemed to be the best at that exact moment. I wanted to create something interesting and that could reflect the main idea of the contest. Winning the contest dispelled all my doubts about what I am capable of and I am truly happy about it."


EDL T-shirt contest winner 2018

The winner of the 2018 EDL T-shirt contest is Emily Van Cantfort from Belgium. Congratulations!

"I first studied graphic design and then started studying office management. As part of an assignment at a language exchange, we held our own competition for the best t-shirt design. I eventually won this, so I decided to also take part in the real competition. Luckily!"
