Your design begins here
Get started
INSPIRATION
Get inspired for your design and share some images and notes with us.
Use our downloadable Templates as a way to sketch out ideas.
We use your notes and images to guide the process, so get creative.
Anything scribbled down is a good start (even napkin sketches!).
About colors
- We are serious about color and take every step to ensure what you expect is what gets printed.
- Castelli allows for exact matches of any color you can come up with. We don’t want to restrict your creativity.
- If you have a garment you want to match the colors of you can send it to us.
- If not, choose colors from our color swatch chart or from a physical Pantone book. This ensures we are both referencing the exact same color to start the process.
- Don’t rely on what you see on screen to choose colors as they can vary from screen to screen and from screen to print.
- We are happy to offer a printed proof when deemed necessary.
Using Logos
- Submit your logos and wordmarks in vector format (.eps, Adobe Illustrator .ai, editable .pdf’s).
- This ensures we can scale and recolor them accurately in production, allowing us to make a graphic proposal quickly.
- Raster images (.png, .jpg, .tiff) are pixel based and might appear blurry or with slight color differences.
- There is a minimum scale requirement to make lines and text readable.
- We will advise you as to what will print the best and make sure the logos are all legible.
LINE ART PROCESS
- If you have a designer, they can download our line art templates and place art directly on them.
- If you don't have a designer, no problem. Send us any inspiration or ideas you have. Even napkin sketches are welcome!
- We will review everything sent and respond with designs on our line art templates with art and logo placement suggestions.
REVIEW, REVISE, AND APPROVE
- Look carefully over the designs and give us any feedback.
- Any logo additions or color changes should be noted (please note, any further additions or changes will slow down your order process).
- We strive to limit the revisions to 3 cycles to help expedite your order process.
- After all revisions are complete, we send the final design for your approval.
- When you are satisfied with the final design, give us a thumbs up and we can get rolling into production!
