I-205 WA Metric (Washington) (Road Sign) Pint Glass Design

A Fictional Metric Road Sign

This pint glass design presents a playful twist on a familiar symbol: the Interstate highway sign. It envisions an I-205 road sign for Washington State, rendered in the familiar visual language of American interstate signage but with a metric twist, referencing the rarely-used kilometer units. The design cleverly highlights the unique absence of metric signage in most of the United States.

Visual Elements: The Core of the Design

The artwork centers around a classic Interstate shield. The dominant colors are the iconic red, white, and blue, immediately signaling its association with the U.S. Interstate Highway System. Within the red portion of the shield, the word "INTERSTATE" is proudly displayed in a clean, all-caps, sans-serif font. At the heart of the design, the number "205" is emblazoned in large, bold, white numerals, easily readable and instantly recognizable. This evokes the bypass route around Portland and Vancouver.

The Metric Modification: A Subtle Nod

The subtle, yet significant, aspect is the hypothetical inclusion of metric units that were never implemented. The overall presentation is made to resemble something that would exist on the road, but the design is a fictional tribute to the infrequent use of metric signage within the United States.

Overall Impression: Nostalgia and Fictional History

The design aims to evoke a sense of nostalgia for the American road trip while simultaneously playing on the unusual hypothetical scenario of metric signage in the U.S. It captures the essence of the I-205 corridor while playfully acknowledging the rare use of kilometers in road signage.

Clear 16 oz (β‰ˆ0.47 L) pint glasses made from solid glass with a heavy base for steady placement. Narrower at the bottom for an easier grip and balanced feel β€” durable, dishwasher-safe, and ideal for both serving and mixing.

These pints are crafted from 100% clear glass that showcases the drink inside β€” color, clarity and carbonation are all visible. A heavier, solid base reduces tipping and gives the glass a satisfying weight in the hand while the gently tapered body makes holding and carrying more comfortable.

Built to last, the construction resists chipping under normal use and is suitable for busy service environments as well as retail display. One-sided print work reads bright against the clear surface; the overall aesthetic is clean and modern.

  • Material: 100% clear glass for pure clarity and gloss.
  • Capacity: 16 oz (standard U.S. pint / β‰ˆ0.47 L).
  • Base: heavy solid glass base reduces tipping and improves balance.
  • Shape: narrower bottom for a comfortable grip and easier carrying.
  • Durability: dishwasher-safe and built for regular use.

Use these glasses for draft pours, mixed drinks, iced beverages and more. Their clear walls show off color and bubbles, which makes them a great choice for menus, tasting flights, and bars where presentation matters.

  1. Serving: ideal for beers, sodas, iced teas and cocktails served cold.
  2. Mixing: also works as a simple mixing glass for shaken or stirred cocktails in casual settings.
  3. Display: clean silhouette fits behind bars, on shelves, or on retail racks.

Quick tip: because the base is heavier, these glasses feel stable on trays and counters β€” handy when serving multiple drinks at once.

These glasses are dishwasher-safe; place them on the top rack and use a regular household cycle. For best longevity, avoid stacking them tightly and steer clear of high-heat commercial wash cycles when possible.

Hand wash with warm water and mild dish soap when you want to preserve maximum clarity and avoid sudden temperature shocks. Handle by the body, not just the rim, to reduce the chance of accidental chipping.
