A rounded rectangle sits at the centre, framed by a rectangular border that gives the piece its structure. Inside the shield, the character 北 sits above the numerals 106, so the eye reads the sign in a clear top-to-bottom order. Nothing decorative competes with those elements. The result is a clean, minimal layout with no ornament beyond the sign itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eMeaning \u0026amp; Symbolism\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe shape and numbering follow the route-shield style used for provincial highways in Taiwan. Route 106 is one of those roads, and the character 北, meaning north, tells a driver which direction the route heads. The sign is a practical piece of wayfinding, designed to be read at a glance from a moving vehicle. Its modern, flat style reflects how contemporary Taiwanese road signage is drawn, and the design carries that functional clarity into a new setting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTurning the Shield in Your Hands\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA mug is a small surface turned slowly in the hand, so the shield is read a little at a time as the cup rotates. The rounded corners of the sign meet the curve of the body, and the numerals come round as you drink. For anyone who likes their coffee with a bit of navigation, this is a quiet, cheeky way to keep your bearings every morning.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Go Mug Yourself","offers":[{"title":"11oz","offer_id":53186560426264,"sku":"GMY-MUG-TWTHW-11OZ-1FJRM-2","price":17.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"15oz","offer_id":53186560459032,"sku":"GMY-MUG-TWTHW-15OZ-492","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0703\/5204\/4312\/files\/tw-thwtp106-taiwan-road-sign-black-coffee-mug-GMY-MUG-TWTHW-11OZ-1FJRM-2-front.webp?v=1794212688","url":"https:\/\/gomugyourself.com\/products\/tw-thwtp106-taiwan-road-sign-black-coffee-mug","provider":"Go Mug Yourself","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
