Louisiana 1035-2 (2008) Road Sign T-Shirt: Design Overview
This t-shirt features the distinctive design of the Louisiana Highway 1035-2 road sign, a marker that identifies a short segment of South Poplar Street in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. The design specifically replicates the post-2008 style, signifying a shift in highway marker aesthetics.
Visual Elements & Representation
The artwork faithfully recreates the official road sign used in Louisiana. The design's most prominent feature is the stark contrast of a black background, representing the modern style adopted by the Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development (La DOTD) since approximately 2008. A white silhouette shape is used for the highway shield.
Centered within the shield is the route designation: "LA 1035-2". The "LA" indicates the state of Louisiana. The "1035" is the route number. The "‑2" signifies this is a spur or auxiliary route, a common numbering practice in Louisiana. The specific font and layout faithfully recreate this information.
Meaning & Symbolism
Beyond its utilitarian function of route identification, the design serves as a visual representation of Louisiana's highway system. The inclusion of the "(2008)" designation within the product's title indicates a specific style, offering a visual connection to a moment in Louisiana’s road infrastructure history. For highway enthusiasts and history buffs, the design represents the evolution of Louisiana’s road markings.
This design celebrates the everyday functionality of road infrastructure, elevating a common sign to wearable art. It signifies that even the shortest, most local routes are an integral part of the state’s network.
