Proposed Flag of Fiji 2015 - Design #37 Hoodie
Showcase the striking design of the proposed Fiji flag from the 2015 redesign contest with this hoodie. The artwork features the elegant layout of Design #37, a bold contender that ultimately wasn't adopted.
Visual Elements
The design is anchored by a light blue field, often referred to as "Fiji blue," which forms the backdrop. On the hoist side, a dark blue isosceles triangle dominates, extending nearly the full height of the flag. This triangle is a key element of the design's identity.
A crisp white chevron, a six-sided shape, gracefully separates the dark blue triangle from the rest of the light blue field, extending towards the fly side of the garment. Within the dark blue triangle resides the primary motif: a light grey sea snail shell.
Meaning and Symbolism
While the specific symbolism wasn't officially detailed in the contest information, the design language of Design #37 conveys several key ideas. The dark blue triangle is reminiscent of a traditional Fijian Vesa design often seen in traditional architecture and crafts, reflecting cultural identity. The light blue background evokes the island nation's connection to the ocean. The shell motif within the triangle likely represents Fiji's marine environment and the significance of the sea to its people. The white chevron serves as a dynamic visual divider, emphasizing contrast and direction.
The design is a testament to the nation's efforts to update its flag and reflects the aesthetic tastes and considerations of the time.
