MN-228 (Minnesota) (Road Sign) T-Shirt - Design Description
This t-shirt features a faithful reproduction of the historical MN-228 road sign, a visual emblem of Minnesota State Highway 228.
Design Elements
The design prominently displays the iconic Minnesota state highway marker. At its core, the design presents the number "228" rendered in a bold, sans-serif font. This font choice ensures clear legibility and strong visual impact, capturing the functional intent of road signage.
Color Palette and Symbolism
The color scheme adheres to Minnesota Department of Transportation (MnDOT) standards. A vibrant blue background provides a striking contrast, while the border and the numeral "228" are rendered in a bright gold (yellow) hue. This color combination is instantly recognizable and signals the road's classification as a state highway.
Meaning and Representation
The MN-228 sign, as recreated in this design, symbolizes the history of a specific roadway. It commemorates the short but functional role MN-228 played as a local connector, linking state highways to serve the needs of local traffic. Even though decommissioned, the sign represents a piece of Minnesota's transportation history and the ongoing role of infrastructure in shaping local communities. The design preserves the legacy of this specific route.
