New Mexico 75 1932: A Vintage Road Trip Aesthetic
This design captures the spirit of a bygone era in New Mexico, evoking the romance of the open road and the charm of vintage signage. At its heart lies the iconic "New Mexico 75 1932" text, a visual cue to the state's historical highway markers.
A Nod to History: The 1930s Signage Style
The design’s aesthetic is rooted in the early 1930s style of New Mexico's state highway signs. The “1932” doesn't denote a creation date for the road itself, but rather signals a stylistic reference, a visual language borrowed from this period. The design aims to replicate this vintage look.
The Zia Sun: A Symbol of Identity and Tradition
Central to the design is the Zia symbol, a powerful emblem of the Zia Pueblo and a prominent feature on New Mexico's state flag. The sun symbol with its four sets of rays represents the sacred number four, symbolizing the four directions, four seasons, and four stages of life. The inclusion of this symbol pays homage to the state's rich cultural heritage.
Visual Elements: Color and Detail
The design incorporates the vintage color scheme that characterized these early road signs. The raised metal lettering and numbering, typical of the embossed legends from that era, may also be suggested within the artwork. The overall look is meant to capture the nostalgia and essence of a classic road trip across the state, with the New Mexico 75 highway at its heart.
