SC-997 (South Carolina) Road Sign Hoodie - Design Description
This hoodie design showcases a representation of a South Carolina road sign. However, instead of depicting a legitimate, existing highway like SC-97, it highlights the conceptual, or potentially misidentified, "SC-997." This emphasizes the ambiguity or informal nature of such a sign, as the information provided states it wouldn't be part of the official South Carolina Department of Transportation (SCDOT) highway system.
Artwork and Visual Elements
The central element of the design mimics a classic South Carolina highway sign. It begins with the state shape, a common feature of official signs. Below this, it includes a stylized graphic featuring the state's official symbol of the Palmetto tree and Crescent Moon. The text "SOUTH CAROLINA" arches across the top in a clear, modern font, completing the official look.
The highway number, "997," is prominently displayed within the sign's shield, signifying the roadway in question. The color scheme would most likely be a blue and white palette mirroring the current SCDOT standard for primary highways since 2007, for a modern look. Alternatively, this design could be based on historical signs, opting for a square white sign, with black numbers and letters.
Meaning and Symbolism
The "SC-997" designation is the core symbolic element. The design serves as a playful exploration of how the actual road signage would look like.
Overall, the design captures the essence of South Carolina's road sign aesthetics, with a twist, making it an interesting and thought-provoking statement piece.
