Louisiana 960-1 (2008) Road Sign T-Shirt: Design Overview
This t-shirt features the distinctive design of the Louisiana Highway 960-1 (2008) road sign, a piece of authentic state-road signage re-imagined for everyday wear. The artwork pays homage to Louisiana's infrastructure and the evolution of its highway markers.
Visual Elements and Representation
The design faithfully replicates the 2008 version of the Louisiana route shield. This means the primary visual element is a rectangular shield composed of a solid black background. Prominently displayed across the shield in bold, white lettering is the route number "960-1".
Meaning and Symbolism
The design carries a dual meaning. Firstly, it represents the specific highway segment designated as LA 960-1. Secondly, the design itself symbolizes the Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development's (LaDOTD) commitment to modernizing and standardizing signage. The black-and-white color scheme, introduced around 2008, denotes a shift from the older green-and-white versions, and represents a specific era in the state's transportation history.
For those familiar with Louisiana highways, the shirt acts as a visual shorthand, instantly communicating a sense of place and state pride. The sign design stands as a bold statement of identity.
