A rounded square shield in white sits at the centre, with the route number \u003cstrong\u003eS80\u003c\/strong\u003e set in bold white numerals. Above it, a yellow header band carries black Chinese characters for the expressway's name, and a thin white border frames the whole rounded rectangle. Nothing is decorative. Every element exists to be read quickly from a moving vehicle, and the high contrast between the colours makes that possible.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eMeaning \u0026amp; Symbolism\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe sign follows the GB 5768 standard, China's national regulation for road traffic signs and markings, so each colour and shape carries a fixed meaning for drivers. The S80 designation marks a provincial expressway, and the name plate identifies the specific road, here the Gulin–Xishui Expressway as an example of the network it belongs to. The sign speaks of geography and travel, of a province stitched together by engineered routes. It is an everyday piece of infrastructure, and the artwork respects that ordinariness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eOn the Mixing Glass\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA mixing glass is tall, narrow at the base and held close, so the design rises up the curved walls as it is turned in the hand. Because the glass is clear, the green field and white shield stay visible through whatever is poured inside, which turns the route marker into something you look through rather than just at. It is a sign designed to be read in motion, and this glass lets it be read at the bar, one pour at a time.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Go Mug Yourself","offers":[{"title":"16oz","offer_id":53161890513176,"sku":"GMY-MIXI-SCHXPW-16OZ-1FMHS","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0703\/5204\/4312\/files\/sichuan-expwy-s80-sign-with-name-china-road-sign-pint-glass-16oz-GMY-MIXI-SCHXPW-16OZ-1FMHS-front.webp?v=1793929864","url":"https:\/\/gomugyourself.com\/products\/sichuan-expwy-s80-sign-with-name-china-road-sign-pint-glass-16oz","provider":"Go Mug Yourself","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
