Science Quote Shirt Design: Black and White Typographic Quote With Atom Icons
This typographic quote design reads “Science because figuring things out is better than making stuff up,” set in bold black and white lettering with two line-art atom icons, and you get it as a digital cut file for shirts, mugs, totes, decals and posters. The Typographic Quote Science Because artwork is built from stacked, centred lines: SCIENCE sits at the top in heavy sans-serif capitals, then BECAUSE FIGURING runs between two atom icons, followed by THINGS OUT IS, BETTER and THAN MAKING STUFF UP. You receive SVG, PNG (300 dpi, transparent), DXF, EPS and PDF files, so you can cut vinyl, press a shirt or print a sheet. The design uses only black and white on a dark background, which makes it easy to cut from black vinyl or print on a light tote. The handwritten-style lettering reads clearly at small sizes, so it works on a mug wrap as well as a classroom poster. It suits back to school, science fair, graduation and a birthday gift for a scientist, and it will look right on a teacher’s door or a student’s laptop.
Design breakdown
This is a single design with no bundle contents, cut in 1 layer and built from two colours, black and white. The lettering is set in bold sans-serif display type for SCIENCE and the main quote lines, with a handwritten-style sans-serif for the supporting text, all centred in a stacked layout. Two line-art atom icons, one on the left and one on the right, flank the words BECAUSE FIGURING. The fine lines of the atom icons and the smaller lettering are best cut at 4 inches or larger. The file is a portrait layout delivered as one sheet.
