HI-198 (Hawaii) (Road Sign) T-Shirt: Design Description
This t-shirt features a bold and instantly recognizable design: the Hawaiʻi State Route 198 road sign. The artwork is a faithful representation of the official signage used on the island of Hawaiʻi, also known as the Big Island.
Visual Elements
The design is centered around a white shield, the standard background for Hawaiʻi state route markers. At the top, the letters "HI" are prominently displayed, signifying "Hawaiʻi". Beneath, the number "198" is printed, clearly indicating the specific state route designation.
Meaning and Symbolism
The "HI-198" road sign represents a specific roadway: Kaiminani Drive. It acts as a guide for motorists, enabling them to navigate efficiently through the island. For those familiar with Hawaiʻi, it evokes feelings of travel and exploration on the Big Island. The sign acts as a visual cue that provides quick, clear identification of the route.
The design adheres to the standards of the Federal Highway Administration’s Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD) for U.S. state route shields, which allows for immediate visual recognition by those familiar with American road signage.
