RJ-113 (Brazil) (Road Sign) Color Changing Mug 11oz

This design is a flat, modern road marker: a pentagonal shield bearing the route designation RJ 113, rendered in stark black and white with a fine double outline.

Visual Elements & Composition

White dominates the artwork, with black supplying the shield's edge and lettering and a trace of grey adding a quiet secondary tone. The pentagonal shield sits centred and unhurried, its double outline framing the space like a border on a printed sign. Two elements carry all the text: the letters RJ and the numerals 113. Nothing decorative competes with them, so the eye goes straight to the code.

Meaning & Symbolism

Route markers are the country's own shorthand for getting from one place to another, and this one points to Rio de Janeiro state, where RJ identifies the region and 113 identifies the road. The design takes the transportation sign's logic of clarity and recognition and reduces it to pure form. Its minimalist, signage-led approach reflects the modern visual language of Brazilian roadways, turning a utilitarian plate into a emblem of place.

Made for the Morning Cup

A road sign is built to be read at a glance, and a mug is read the same way: picked up, turned once in the hand, and seen in full before the first sip. The shield's crisp outline wraps around the curve of the cup, so the route code faces you each time you lift it. Reveal the hidden colour with a hot drink and the sign's clean lines come alive, a small roadside landmark for every start to the day.
