A shield shape sits at the centre, its notched bottom point giving it the familiar silhouette of a route marker. Inside, a rounded-rectangle border frames the lettering, and the two text elements, \u003cstrong\u003eBR\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003e336\u003c\/strong\u003e, stack with the clean, even spacing of a sign built to be read from a moving car.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eMeaning \u0026amp; Symbolism\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe shield is the language of the road network. In Brazil, the \u003cstrong\u003eBR\u003c\/strong\u003e prefix marks a federal highway, and the number that follows places the route within the national grid of roads that link one region to the next. BR-336 is one of those connecting lines, and this artwork honours the system of signage that guides drivers across a country of vast distances. The modern, minimal treatment places the sign in the present day of cartography and highway design.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eShaping the Reading of the Sign\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eA mixing glass has a tall, tapered body, and the shield's upright form suits that line. The design wraps the curve of the glass so the route number turns as the drink is raised, a small piece of navigation for the hand. It is a fitting pick for anyone who has ever traced a route with a finger on a map, or who simply enjoys a good road story over a well-made drink.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Go Mug Yourself","offers":[{"title":"16oz","offer_id":53144280203544,"sku":"GMY-MIXI-BR336-16OZ","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0703\/5204\/4312\/files\/br-336-jct-brazil-road-sign-pint-glass-16oz-GMY-MIXI-BR336-16OZ-front.webp?v=1793801310","url":"https:\/\/gomugyourself.com\/products\/br-336-jct-brazil-road-sign-pint-glass-16oz","provider":"Go Mug Yourself","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
