«Colony» — a T-shirt from the waterweed noodle brand KROOS. The original pattern transfers the principle of aquatic plant growth onto the fabric: individual modules connect to form a living structure. The logo holds the composition together, while the lime colony develops in the bottom right section. The white fabric acts as the negative space between the elements.



MANUFACTURING AND SPECIFICATIONS
A white, straight-cut t-shirt, with 100% cotton as the base material. S–XL size range. One print area on the front: 30 × 36 cm, centered on the garment, with the top edge positioned 8 cm below the neckline. The back and sleeves are blank.
DTG direct-to-garment printing was selected: substrate preparation → fabric printing → heat setting according to equipment settings. Graphic colors: lime and dark. Transparent areas retain the fabric color.
The production PNG is prepared at 1:1 scale, 300 dpi, sRGB, with a transparent background. The source file is an SVG with editable vector outlines. Before printing, the garment model, its size chart, and the printable area are verified.
PROJECT STATUS
Images are design visualizations and schematics. A physical sample has not yet been produced. The design and files are prepared; the next stage involves selecting a specific substrate and conducting test printing to verify color, placement, and print durability after washing. Cost, print run size, and timeline will be determined after consulting with the production team.
The schematic shows the same print size for sizes S–XL. The substrate widths of 48 and 60 cm are guidelines for composition checking; the manufacturer’s size chart will be used before production begins.
The main project KROOS features water hyacinth noodles:
