About This Year’s Shirt
Every year, the WP Accessibility Day t-shirt becomes a conversation piece. It represents our community, our mission, and the values that bring us together.
As the organizing team reviewed design concepts, one theme kept emerging. Many designs spoke directly to people already familiar with accessibility concepts, terminology, and practices. While those ideas resonated within our community, we can use this year’s shirt to communicate something larger and more universal.
The result is a design centered on a simple message: Build for All.
The Story Behind the Shirt
Accessibility is often discussed in terms of technical requirements, standards, and implementation details. Those things matter, but they are only part of the story. At its heart, accessibility is about creating experiences that welcome everyone.
That idea became a guiding principle for refining the final design.
“As designer, Michael Hanttula, expressed during the design process: The core of accessibility is build for all.”
Michael Hanttula of Spark3 contributed to the creative direction and refinement of the shirt, helping to shape the visual presentation but also its philosophy. His influence is seen in the overall concept, positioning, typography, production considerations, and the emphasis on creating a design that feels timeless rather than tied to a single moment.
The final result intentionally embraces simplicity. Rather than relying on insider references or visual metaphors, the design focuses on a message that anyone can understand. Whether someone works in accessibility every day or is encountering the idea for the first time, the invitation is the same. Build for all.
Because accessibility isn’t about creating experiences for a select audience, it’s about making sure everyone has a place. We hope this year’s shirt sparks conversations, raises awareness, and serves as a reminder that when we build with inclusion in mind, everyone benefits.
Description of the Shirt
This year’s t-shirt is a short-sleeve crew-neck t-shirt in a deep kelly green.
The front graphic and text are in light lime green, featuring a stylized accessibility figure inside a circular burst/radiating ring positioned above stacked, all-capitalized text reading:
BUILD
FOR
ALL.
The typography uses a blocky, pixel-inspired style with tight spacing and strong geometric forms.
The left sleeve displays the WordPress Accessibility Day 2026 logo and text in matching lime green.

Shipping and “The Fine Print”
Our t-shirts are printed and shipped via Custom Ink. They can ship internationally, but they cannot ship to certain countries, such as Russia, Ukraine, and Serbia. Contact Custom Ink if you want to verify shipping to your country.
If you select to receive a shirt as a volunteer or as a donation thank-you gift, please remember that you’re receiving the shirt as a gift and that you’re not purchasing it.
While we will do our very best to get you your t-shirt and help you track down shirts that were not received, as a very small volunteer-led nonprofit, we cannot guarantee delivery of shirts. We also cannot reimburse you for any taxes or customs fees your country may charge. Please consider that when deciding if you want a shirt. People in European countries typically get charged approximately €14 to receive the shirts.
T-shirts are non-returnable, and all donations to WP Accessibility Day are nonrefundable.
