"South Korea Roots" Unisex Longsleeve T-shirt

The words South Korea are built in two compressed rows of tall, heavy lettering, their nearly black forms cut into jagged splinters and pointed offshoots. Narrow blue-grey channels run through the letters like grain worn into wood, while fine white seams hold the dark sections apart. Bare crooked branches break from the S, H and K most noticeably, turning the compact word block into a thicket. On the Unisex Longsleeve T-shirt, the title remains legible even as its edges are pulled outward into roots and limbs.

Above the upper row, a wide band of charcoal, slate blue and pale grey turns through several layers before closing into a small inward spiral at the upper right. Beneath the lower word, a second heavy root form bends toward the lower left and thins into long twigs. Grey dots appear in the surrounding space, with white gaps left open inside the characters and among the branching lines. They punctuate the open areas without filling them. Each gap keeps the crowded forms readable. South Korea is the English name of the country, and here its letters carry the full structure of the composition.
