Hi, I’m Kara Ware, a passionate Surface Design Manager with a deep love for creating original artwork, repeat patterns, and color-focused designs. With extensive experience in textile design, color theory, and digital artwork creation, I specialize in crafting visually compelling and commercially viable prints that bring products to life.
Currently, I lead surface design for Fourbital Factory and the 4T2D apparel brand, managing seasonal concept development, collaborating with technical designers to create innovative, high-quality designs. My expertise extends to knitwear, digital printing, and laser cutting, ensuring precision and efficiency in production.
Throughout my career, I have worked closely with production teams, material technicians, and creative directors to refine designs and optimize workflows. My proficiency in Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop, and textile printing technologies allows me to push the boundaries of design while maintaining practical applications in manufacturing.
With a keen eye for emerging trends and a commitment to innovation, I am always looking for new ways to enhance design processes, explore sustainable materials, and create art that resonates with both brands and consumers.
Let’s collaborate and bring bold, inspiring designs to life!
