The design of this t-shirt prominently features the iconic "ILLINOIS 21" road sign, a familiar sight for drivers navigating the northeastern Illinois region. The artwork replicates the standard signage style used for Illinois state routes.
Visual Elements
The design faithfully recreates the rectangular shape of the road sign, with "ILLINOIS" displayed in a bold, sans-serif font above the route number "21". The typography is clear and easily readable, conveying the function of the sign as a guide and marker.
