Zusatzzeichen 1012-32 - Radfahrer absteigen Hoodie: Design Description
This hoodie design showcases the official Zusatzzeichen 1012-32, a German road sign, specifically the "Radfahrer absteigen" ("Cyclists Dismount") sign. The artwork replicates the sign's appearance, adhering to the specifications of the StVO 1992 (German Road Traffic Regulations). The design’s layout reflects the standard supplementary sign format, designed to be placed underneath a main traffic sign.
Visual Elements & Symbolism
The central element of the design is the text "Radfahrer absteigen" in a clear, sans-serif font. This phrase is the direct instruction and primary focus. The design presents the sign in its typical rectangular form, mimicking the standard dimension of 420 x 231 mm (or an equivalent proportional representation). The colors and typography are chosen to ensure high visibility and clarity, mirroring the sign's intention to quickly convey information to cyclists.
The design’s symbolism centers around the directive to cyclists: to dismount and walk their bikes. The sign’s presence on the hoodie serves as a visual reminder of the instruction and its implications. It represents a specific location requiring a change in cyclist behavior for safety or appropriateness.
Design Intent
The design clearly communicates the function of the "Radfahrer absteigen" sign. It's a statement about the sign's significance within the context of German road safety and cycling etiquette. The design is intended to draw attention to this specific traffic regulation.
