The Alumable Design Skills Comp is a hunt for two designs: a limited-edition branded t-shirt, and an A4 sticker sheet with fun designs. Two winners. Cash, camera time and a conference showcase.
Front: chest logo — swipe or drag across the tee to spin it.
2 Winners, each gets:
Paid straight into your bank via the Alumable app.

A social media video clip produced with you, telling the human story behind your design.
Produced with you, shared to our socials
Showcase your design skills as you network with 300+ tech industry professionals at the True Blue Blazing 2026 Salesforce community event at Marvel Stadium on 20th October (Tue).
Enter one or both. Each brief has its own winner, and the winning artwork goes into production as real Alumable merch.
Brief 01
One front and/or back unique artwork for a white or black cotton T-shirt, that people would love to wear. Incorporate our logo somewhere and corporate colours orange (#FFA33C), purple (#9A76BE) and white (#FFFFFF), and the rest is up to you!
Example: Arty line sketch, print-ready in three colours
Your canvas: the current tee, logo on the chest
Brief 02
At least 3 fun designs (more is welcome!) that will fit on a single A4 sheet. Repeat art to fill in blank spaces. Designed to live on laptops, notepads, drink bottles, etc. Die-cut friendly shapes.
Example: an A4 sheet of Alumable and Arty die-cut stickers
Brand mark: use it, bend it, or leave it out

Meet Arty, our mascot, the arctic fox
Art is more important than ever. In an age where AI can do a lot of things, creativity, taste and human expression are what still make you you. That's the bit we want students to hold onto.
And why an arctic fox? They are small and live somewhere genuinely brutal. It survives anyway, by being adaptable, resourceful and resilient. It changes its coat with the seasons, ranges further than anything its size should, and makes a living where most animals simply can't.
That's the graduate job market. It's cold out there. Getting your first role takes all three of those things. Arty is here to remind you that you've got them.
