DESIGN PLACEMENT CONSIDERATIONS

DESIGN PLACEMENT CONSIDERATIONS

Creating printed garment design involves more than just artwork; placement is critical to resonating with your target audience and the overall aesthetics.

Factor in the garment's style and cut.

  • Style Considerations: Different garment styles offer varying print areas and dimensions. For instance, a vertical design may look great on a crewneck but look missed placed polo shirts.
  • Design Adaptability: Ensure your design is adaptable to different styles by considering how elements like seams and collars will interact with the print. Avoid placing critical design elements where they may be obscured or distorted.

Remember Your Audience

  • Target Market: Understand who will be wearing your shirts. Younger audiences appreciate unconventional graphic placements and bold visual elements, while older customers prefer subtle branding, understated graphics and traditional print placements.
  • Print Size Considerations: Consider how different garment sizes affect your design's appearance. Ensure your design scales well across various sizes to maintain its impact and visibility. Avoid designs that look disproportionately small on larger shirts, which can detract from the overall aesthetic.
  • Purpose of the printed garment: For sports teams or corporate events, prominently emphasising branding and logos or sponsor designs is likely paramount.

By factoring in the garment style, understanding your audience, and considering the shape of your design, you can create printed merch that is visually appealing and resonates with your market.
