Flag of South Africa Construction Sheet Hoodie - Design
This hoodie showcases a detailed representation of the South African flag, rendered in a style reminiscent of a construction sheet or technical drawing.
Geometric Precision
The design meticulously replicates the official geometric construction of the flag, as defined by the South African Bureau of Standards (SABS 1994). This includes the precise proportions (2:3 height to width ratio), the placement and angles of the green "Y" shape, and the dimensions of the various color fields and borders.
Symbolic Convergence
At the heart of the design is the iconic "Y" shape, the key element of the South African flag. This shape, extending from the hoist side and culminating in the fly end, symbolizes the convergence of diverse elements within South African society, moving forward in unity. The design honors this message of unity and the country's collective journey.
Official Colors
The artwork utilizes the official colors of the flag, as specified by the SABS. The vibrant red and blue fields, the central green "Y" shape, the black triangle at the hoist, and the yellow and white borders are rendered with precise color accuracy. This allows the wearer to display a faithful representation of the flag, which was designed by Frederick G. Brownell.
