Iowa 80 (Iowa) (Road Sign) T-Shirt: Design Description
This t-shirt showcases the iconic road sign for Interstate 80 as it traverses the state of Iowa, often informally referred to as "Iowa 80." The design faithfully replicates the visual elements of this important piece of highway infrastructure.
Design Elements
The central element of the design is the standard Interstate shield. This shape immediately identifies the highway and its connection to the national Interstate system. The shield is composed of a prominent red top band bearing the word "INTERSTATE," and a blue lower field displaying the white numeral "80."
To distinguish this as an Iowa representation of the sign, the design includes the word "IOWA" incorporated on the shield. This detail grounds the design geographically and signifies the specific segment of I-80 traveling through the state.
Symbolism and Meaning
The sign itself is a symbol of travel, connectivity, and the open road. It represents the ease of traversing the state of Iowa and accessing the major cities and junctions it serves, from Council Bluffs in the west to Davenport in the east.
By wearing this design, you are expressing an appreciation for the road and the journey itself. The color palette of red, white, and blue, adhering to the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD) standards, is a familiar and reassuring symbol for drivers across the country.
