TodoYo T-Shirt

Design: José de la O

Year: 2008

Materials: Screenprint.

“Todo Yo” its a typical mexican saying when you are involved in a situation when everybody blames you, even when you didn’t do nothing. It could mean “Always Me!” in english. I came up with the idea to do t-shirts with this slogan while joking around with my buddies over difficult clients. Originally I wanted to do the t-shirt with the “todo yo todo yo” in Helvetica. Later, I wanted to experiment over a more rich design of the slogan with a repetition of geometrical shapes that eventually form the letters. I gave away some of this fashionable t-shirts to some friends and one of them got lucky while wearing it, if you know what I mean.

This t-shirt is soon to be sold in shops around Mexico City and trough this website. In the mean time, if you are interested in purchase one or distributing them, please click here. I also used this logo for the name of my blog.
