FIFE PILGRIM WAY

For interpretive panels, a touring exhibition, books and souvenir leaflets. 

The map incorporates brand colours and symbols of pilgrimage, guiding walkers from the River Forth to St Andrews. Inspired by medieval texts, an illuminated border tells the story of the pilgrims who once travelled the path, marked by their distinctive hats, and badges collected at holy sites en route.
