WV-87 (Virginia) (Road Sign) Hoodie - Design Description
This hoodie design showcases a bold and iconic visual, directly referencing a road sign. However, it specifically references the conceptual element of a non-existent Virginia highway.
Design Elements and Representation
The primary element is a stylized rendition of a road sign. The design uses the familiar shape and layout of a state highway marker: a square or slightly rectangular shield. Within the shield, the design incorporates the text "WV" at the top and the number "87" below.
The design plays on the known visual identity of road signs, immediately conveying the idea of a highway designation. The "WV" indicates a state route, specifically West Virginia's route system. While the number "87" is a specific identifier, it is intended to evoke the broader experience of travel and exploration.
Conceptual Meaning
The design's key aspect is the deliberate inclusion of "(Virginia)" in the product title, even though WV-87 is a West Virginia highway. This creates a conceptual juxtaposition. This is because West Virginia is known as the "Mountain State", which is an allusion to the state's beauty and vast areas of scenic roadways and highways. Therefore, the design celebrates the state's roadways. This creates a sense of curiosity and perhaps a touch of irony. The design can be interpreted as a nod to the shared visual language of road signs while playfully subverting the expectations of geographical accuracy, adding a layer of cleverness.
