Designing a Timeless Symbol
A Subtly Elegant Cap in Honor of the Dominican Republic
Objective 2 defines how Sustantivo translates cultural depth into form.
It focuses on the creation of a single object, the 1106 cap, as a case study in restrained design, material intention, and symbolic precision.
The project began with a simple observation: while Dominican-themed apparel is abundant, much of it relies on volume, visibility, or overt symbolism. What remained largely unexplored was an approach rooted in quiet design, one that treats cultural identity not as decoration, but as structure. Read more here.

NOTES:
The 1106 “Dad” Cap is a study in subtle form. Its unstructured crown offers a natural, unobtrusive profile, while the pre-curved brim introduces a gentle, time-earned contour. The silhouette reflects a commitment to quiet design rather than expressive embellishment.
Constructed from brushed cotton for a refined, soft-aged texture, the cap is delivered in a soft-touch dust bag as part of the 1106 series. A considered object made for everyday use, defined by restraint, comfort, and clarity of form.
DAD CAP FIT GUIDE
DAD CAP FIT GUIDE
A dad cap features a low-profile, unstructured crown with a gently curved brim, designed to sit closer to the head for a relaxed, broken-in feel.
This style complements oval, round, and softer face shapes by following the natural contours of the head, creating an easy, understated silhouette that feels effortless rather than imposing.
