In 16th century, the walls of Scottish castles and stately homes were anything but bare. They were covered in paintings and tapestries, bursting with colour.  

Over time, much of that decoration was painted over, plastered up, or simply forgotten. It’s hard to imagine what these places looked like when they were full of life.  

This projection brings the walls of Merchiston Tower, the ancestral seat of the university’s namesake, to life with an interactive, tapestry-inspired projection.
