St. Louis County Route 16 MN (Minnesota) Hoodie - Design Description
This hoodie showcases the iconic road sign design of St. Louis County Route 16 in Minnesota, a County State-Aid Highway (CSAH). The artwork is a direct representation of the official signage used to mark this important connector route within the county.
Visual Elements
The design faithfully replicates the standard Minnesota CSAH shield. At its heart is a square or diamond-shaped field in a vibrant blue, serving as the primary background. Across the face of the blue background, bold yellow (gold) lettering is prominently displayed.
The text is arranged to mimic the actual road sign. At the top, the word "COUNTY" is displayed in all-capital yellow letters. Below this, the number "16", representing the route designation, is rendered in a large, bold yellow font, completing the official CSAH 16 designation.
Meaning and Symbolism
The design's symbolism is tied directly to the function of CSAH 16: to connect townships, rural communities, and state highways within St. Louis County. The sign itself represents navigation, local governance (St. Louis County), and the crucial role this road plays in the region's transportation network.
The colors themselves contribute to the symbolism. The blue background, used consistently across all Minnesota CSAH signs, symbolizes the funding assistance provided by the state to support the local roadways. The yellow (gold) represents visibility and clarity, ensuring the route designation is easily identifiable for drivers.
