This project presents a proposal for a site-specific wayfinding system that navigates at the intersection between illustration, handcrafting, and visual identity. Specifically designed for Den Grænseløse Festival, a volunteer-driven festival, centred around food, art, music and nature, held annually in Djursland. Designing with visual sustainability in mind has been at the forefront, along with creating a modular solution that carries a handheld touch inspired by nature.

The main element is a 20-meter organically shaped structure. This wall features an illustrated mural on the outside, designed to attract attendees, and informative elements on the inside to offer guidance while visually engage. Additionally, my contribution encompasses cut-out wooden signage placed strategically throughout the festival grounds.
