Louisiana 1231-2 2008 (Louisiana) (Road Sign) T-Shirt: Design Description
This t-shirt features a striking design inspired by the Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development's (La DOTD) post-2008 highway signage.
Artwork and Visual Elements
The central element of the design is a stylized representation of the "LA 1231-2" route marker. The design adheres to the post-2008 standards: a bold, black background provides a stark contrast, highlighting a white silhouette of the state of Louisiana. The route number, "1231-2", is rendered in a clean, sans-serif font, printed in black. The overall aesthetic is clean, modern, and highly legible.
Meaning and Symbolism
The design clearly communicates the identity of a specific Louisiana state highway segment. The "LA" prefix indicates its status as a state-maintained route. The numerical designation, "1231-2", pinpoints the specific road segment. The "2008" refers to the year the Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development (La DOTD) changed the design of the highway markers to the newer black-and-white version. The black background and white silhouette of the state convey a sense of authority, official state route, and clarity, while the contrasting colors ensure high visibility.
