About this design
Jjj Expwy S3300 sign with name
Jjj Expwy S3300 sign with name (China) (Road Sign) Black Coffee Mug
This design reproduces a Chinese expressway route shield: a dark green rounded-rectangle marker bearing the route number S3300 and the name of the Daxing Airport North Expressway.
Visual Elements & Composition
Dark green dominates the layout, filling roughly three-fifths of the field, with a white border framing the shield and white lettering carrying the information. A lime yellow-green accent picks out the route designation, and small black details anchor the edges. The composition is flat and vector-clean, with no ornament at all. Everything is arranged for legibility: the route number sits at the centre of attention, and the place names run beneath it in a clear, ordered band. The characters 京, 津, 冀 and 高速 appear in the lettering, alongside S3300 and 大兴机场北线高速.
Meaning & Symbolism
The marker identifies the S3300 Provincial Expressway, known locally as the Daxing Airport North Expressway or North Line Expressway. The road links Beijing Daxing International Airport with the wider Jing-Jin-Ji region, the joined territory of Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei, and runs through Beijing and Hebei province. The characters 京, 津 and 冀 are the traditional abbreviations for those three administrative areas, so the sign reads as a map in miniature. The design follows the GB 5768 standard for road traffic signs and markings, which is why its shape, colour and typography feel so deliberately functional. It speaks of modern transit and civil engineering, and of how a nation's transport network knits its regions together.
Made for Your Morning Cup
A road sign is built to be read at a glance from a moving car, and that suits a mug perfectly. Your eye travels around the curve of the cup, and the green shield and its route number come into view one clear panel at a time, just as they would through a windscreen. Wrapped around the handle side, the marker becomes a quiet conversation starter for your first coffee of the day, a small nod to the road trips and airport runs that bring people together.

Glossy black ceramic mugs in two practical sizes — 11 oz (≈330 ml) and 15 oz (≈440 ml). Comfortable C-handle, microwave- and dishwasher-safe, and manufactured to be lead- and BPA-free. Note: printed blacks may read slightly different from the mug’s base color.
These mugs are made from solid ceramic with a glossy glaze that gives a deep, even surface for printing. Sublimation printing embeds ink into the glaze so artwork sits smoothly on the mug rather than simply sitting on top — that means better resistance to fading and scratching during normal use.
They’re available in the classic 11-ounce size for everyday black coffee and tea, and a larger 15-ounce cup if you like extra room for milk, foam or a long pour. The C-shaped handle is wide enough for a secure grip and balances the mug well when full.
- Material: 100% ceramic with a high-gloss finish for punchy, saturated results.
- Sizes: 11 oz (≈330 ml) and 15 oz (≈440 ml) — choose your routine size.
- Printing: sublimation process fuses color into the glaze for durable imagery.
- Safety: lead- and BPA-free; meets common food-contact safety standards.
- Design note: very dark artwork and the mug’s black base can produce subtle shade differences — add a thin lighter outline to ensure contrast if needed.
These mugs are at home in the kitchen, on the office desk, or tucked into a morning routine. They work for espresso shots, pour-overs, oat-milk lattes — you name it. The larger size is handy when you want a second cup’s worth without a refill.
- Daily use: fill with your preferred brew and sip — the mug handles hot liquids safely.
- Office-friendly: fits most standard mug warmers and sits securely on communal trays and kitchen counters.
- Gifting: packs well (wrap with a soft layer) and pairs nicely with coffee beans, tea tins, or a small box of biscuits.
Practical tip: for very dark designs, try a thin light border or a small margin so the artwork reads cleanly against the black ceramic.
These mugs are both microwave- and dishwasher-safe, but gentle habits extend the life of the print. We recommend dishwasher use on the top rack and milder cycles when possible.
Hand-washing is the friendliest option: warm water, mild dish soap, and a soft sponge. Avoid steel wool, harsh scouring pads, or blasting with extremely hot industrial cycles. And a quick reminder — don’t microwave an empty mug.
Two sizes: 11 oz (approx. 330 ml) and 15 oz (approx. 440 ml). The smaller cup is the familiar, everyday size; the larger one is for fuller pours and extra-creamy drinks.
Each mug’s mouth and height are proportioned so they’re easy to drink from and easy to clean. If you’re pairing with saucers or nesting in cabinets, expect the 15 oz to be slightly wider and taller than the 11 oz.
