I-475 Future (United States) (Road Sign) Hoodie - Design
This hoodie features a design inspired by the concept of "Future I-475" routes within the United States. The artwork centers around the visual language of road signs, specifically those used to indicate proposed interstate corridors, as defined by the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD).
Artwork Elements
The design prominently displays a stylized rendition of a "Future Interstate Corridor" sign. It departs from the standard Interstate sign format by omitting a specific route number (like a regular I-475 sign would). This absence reflects the "Future" designation, signifying a proposed route that is not yet fully realized. Instead, the design leans on the overall shape and typical blue and white color scheme of an Interstate sign, acting as a placeholder for a future highway.
The sign's visual weight may be accentuated with shadow and light. This element lends a sense of depth and three-dimensionality. This detail is intended to invoke the idea of a road which exists only in plans, proposals, or studies – the idea of a destination still in progress.
Meaning and Symbolism
The design of this hoodie taps into the aspirational nature of infrastructure projects. It represents the potential for growth, connectivity, and the anticipation of improved transportation networks. The "Future" aspect embodies the idea of progress and the ongoing evolution of the American landscape.
The overall aesthetic is a tribute to the road sign itself. This familiar design element is a symbol of travel, exploration, and the pursuit of connection.
