Nothing competes with it. There are no figures, numerals or lettering, only the vertical bar and the open space around it. The result is restrained and direct, with the red reading as a clear point of focus rather than a busy scene.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eMeaning \u0026amp; Symbolism\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe title, Carretera Nacional, refers to Colombia's national highway network, the roads that link mountain passes, cities and regional corridors across a country of sharp geographic contrasts. The design takes that network as its subject: a single line of travel, reduced to its essentials. The road becomes a symbol of transit, commerce and connection, the routes that bind the nation together and the sense of adventure found on the open road.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eDesigned for the Hand\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA mug is turned in the hand, so the design rotates slowly as you drink, the red bar travelling around the cup like a marker passing by a window. The design is also meant to be seen when hot: as the mug warms, the artwork reveals itself, and the road appears as the coffee or tea goes in. It is a small journey that unfolds with your morning, and a good reason to keep the mug close.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Go Mug Yourself","offers":[{"title":"11oz","offer_id":53171375472920,"sku":"GMY-MUG-CRRNCN-11OZ-1FJ0M","price":17.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0703\/5204\/4312\/files\/carretera-nacional-colombia-road-sign-color-changing-mug-11oz-GMY-MUG-CRRNCN-11OZ-1FJ0M-front.webp?v=1794024231","url":"https:\/\/gomugyourself.com\/products\/carretera-nacional-colombia-road-sign-color-changing-mug-11oz","provider":"Go Mug Yourself","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
