Description
A conversation has to start somewhere. This statement encourages people to speak to the person in front of them rather than watch, whisper or ask the person beside them questions about them. Saying hello doesn’t mean demanding an explanation, just treating someone as someone.
The design
Staring Doesn’t Help. A Hello Does. is printed in bold lettering on the front of the shirt, with supporting wording, Boldly Unseen branding and a QR code combined into a single design. Choose black or white, whichever makes the statement louder for you.
Scan the code
The printed QR code opens a short page about what staring can feel like from the other side: being watched, whispered about or discussed through the person next to you can make someone feel on display. It explains that curiosity is fair enough, suggests starting with the ordinary things like saying hello and speaking to the person rather than over them, and reminds readers to ask before stepping in to help.
