MO-supp-template2 (Missouri) (Road Sign) T-Shirt: Design Description
This t-shirt showcases the design template for Missouri's supplemental route shields, a unique element of the state's highway system. The artwork is based on "MO-supp-template2.svg," a publicly available graphic file from Wikimedia Commons. This design is not meant to be used "as is" and would be for the graphic template.
Visual Elements
The design features a starkly simple yet iconic layout. It presents the basic structure of a Missouri supplemental route shield: a white rectangular shape with a thick, bold black border. This creates a clean and easily recognizable frame.
The central area of the shield, designed to display two black letters representing a specific supplemental route. The letters are not included in the template itself; rather, it provides the essential background and border within which those letters would be placed. The black on white contrast provides clarity, ensuring the route designation is readily visible.
Meaning and Symbolism
The design represents the Missouri Supplemental Route System, a network of minor state highways. The use of letters (rather than numbers) for these routes highlights their secondary nature and distinguishes them from the numbered state and federal highways. The template's design reflects the standard signage of this system, promoting consistency in how these routes are identified.
The black and white color scheme mirrors the official signage standard, creating immediate recognition for anyone familiar with Missouri roadways. The bold border and prominent letters communicate the importance of these routes in providing navigation information.
The t-shirt design, therefore, is a nod to a unique aspect of Missouri's transportation infrastructure and a celebration of its distinct signage conventions.
