SD 105 (South Dakota) Road Sign T-Shirt: Design Overview
This t-shirt features a classic representation of a decommissioned South Dakota Highway 105 road sign. The design pays homage to a piece of South Dakota's transportation history, specifically its presence in Union County.
Artwork and Visual Elements
The artwork replicates the straightforward and functional design used by the South Dakota Department of Transportation (SDDOT). The design is presented in a clean, minimalist style with a square or slightly rectangular format. It showcases a stark contrast, typical of highway signage: black text against a white background.
The core element of the design is the route designation: “105”. This number appears in large, bold, black numerals, rendered in the FHWA Series D typeface, a standard font used for road signage across the United States. Above the route number, the words “SOUTH DAKOTA” appear in black uppercase letters, clearly identifying the highway's state location. A thin, black rectangular border encompasses the entire design, providing visual definition.
Meaning and Symbolism
The design symbolizes the history of South Dakota's road network, specifically the era when SD 105 served as a connector route in the southeastern part of the state. The sign’s presence represents a bygone era of local connectivity and transportation infrastructure. The black-on-white color scheme and simple layout reflect the practical and utilitarian nature of highway signage, designed for clear visibility and efficient communication.
