Louisiana 1087 (Louisiana) Road Sign T-Shirt - Design Description
This t-shirt showcases the iconic Louisiana 1087 road sign, a distinctive marker that stands out among U.S. highway signs. The design is a faithful representation of the modern standard adopted by the Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development (LaDOTD) since 2008.
Artwork & Visual Elements
The central design element is the stylized outline of the state of Louisiana itself, instantly recognizable by its unique shape. The background is rendered in a crisp white, providing high contrast and visibility.
A thin, black border elegantly follows the outline of the state, defining its form. Centered within the state outline, the number "1087" is prominently displayed in a bold black font, specifically FHWA Series D or E, the standard typeface used on federal highways.
Some versions of the design include the word "LOUISIANA" in a smaller uppercase font above the number, further clarifying the sign's purpose and its association with the state. This detail adds an extra layer of authenticity to the design.
Meaning & Symbolism
The design represents Louisiana Highway 1087, a secondary connector route in St. Tammany Parish, Louisiana. The use of the state outline itself is a powerful symbol of Louisiana pride and identity. By wearing this design, you're showcasing an appreciation for the state's unique highway markers and its rich transportation history. The sign is more than a wayfinding device; it's a visual embodiment of the local area and the state it represents.
