Connecticut Highway 120 (Road Sign) Hoodie - Design Overview
This hoodie features a bold, instantly recognizable design inspired by the official Connecticut Route 120 wide road sign, a key element of Connecticut's highway infrastructure. The artwork directly replicates the sign's distinctive characteristics, bringing a piece of Connecticut roadways to your wardrobe.
A Slice of Connecticut's Roads
The design faithfully recreates the horizontal rectangular form of the CT 120 sign, precisely as it appears on green guide signs along major roadways. This design choice pays homage to the important role the signs play in guiding drivers and providing crucial navigation information.
Visual Elements: Clarity and Purpose
The artwork features a clean, uncluttered layout designed for maximum legibility, mirroring the design principles employed in road signage. "CONNECTICUT" appears centered in a small, easily readable font across the top. Beneath, the large, bold numerals "120" are prominently displayed, communicating the route number with immediate impact. This layout is a direct echo of the FHWA Series Gothic typeface that improves clarity at a glance.
Color Palette: Black on White - A Standard
The color scheme is the standard for Connecticut road signage: sharp black lettering and a thin black border are centered on a clean white background. This high-contrast palette is intentionally designed for visibility, ensuring the route designation is quickly and easily interpreted, particularly at highway speeds. The use of black and white signifies the clarity and straightforwardness of the design.
