This t-shirt features a faithful representation of the 1980s Virginia Route 161 road sign design. The artwork captures the iconic visual language of the era's road signage, presenting a bold and instantly recognizable symbol of Virginian roadways.
Design Elements
The central element of the design is a white square, bordered by a thin black outline. Centered within this square is the black outline of the state of Virginia itself, a distinctive shape that immediately identifies the location.
Above the state outline, the word "VIRGINIA" is printed in bold, uppercase black letters, further solidifying the state's identity. Within the state's outline, the route number "161" is displayed in bold black numerals. This simple yet effective layout conveys crucial directional information.
Meaning and Symbolism
The design is a celebration of Virginia's transportation history and its enduring iconography. The Virginia outline shield is a direct symbol of the Commonwealth, representing its geography and the roads that connect its communities. The bold "161" identifies a specific route, acting as a guidepost for those navigating the area.
The minimalist color palette of black on white, reflective of the sign's construction, enhances the design's readability and timeless aesthetic. The sign represents a clear and efficient method of conveying information crucial to wayfinding.
