I-68 WV (Hypothetical Road Sign) T-Shirt: Design Overview
This t-shirt showcases a compelling visual representation of the Interstate 68 (I-68) highway shield, but with a unique twist: it imagines a hypothetical version for the state of West Virginia.
Shield Design
The core of the design is the iconic Interstate shield, instantly recognizable to anyone familiar with American roadways. It adheres to the standard format: a bold red banner across the top bearing the word "INTERSTATE" in crisp white lettering. Below, a vibrant blue field provides the backdrop for the prominently displayed white numeral "68." A clean white border frames the entire shield, emphasizing its shape and providing contrast.
State and Directional Elements
In place of the typical state name seen on actual I-68 shields, the design features "WEST VIRGINIA" in a clear, bold font within a white rectangular banner below the shield, signifying the state in which the sign *would* hypothetically exist. The inclusion of the state name establishes the unique character of the sign.
The design, being purely about visuals, does not include any directional elements, such as "EAST" or "WEST" banners.
Meaning and Symbolism
The design speaks to a sense of regional connection and the allure of American highway culture. While I-68 does not officially run through West Virginia, the design hints at the geographical link via the I-68/I-79 corridor near the border. It evokes the feeling of travel and adventure, with the interstate shield serving as a symbol of the interconnectedness of states and the journeys that shape our lives.
