媽祖遶境活動代代相傳至今，透過電子媒體宣傳、民眾熱情參與，可以說是台灣每年最盛大宗教文化活動。政府更將其指定為國家重要民俗，在政府積極推動文化創意產業的政策下，活用傳統文化元素結合設計創意，開發出許多相關文創商品帶動週邊商機，每年均為臺灣帶來巨大國際宣傳效益。在活動期間，不僅參與活動的信徒會佩戴媽祖平安符，許多本地或外國的觀光客也會購買媽祖平安符自用，或當伴手禮致贈親朋好友，這些平安符有傳統的，也有加入現代設計創意的文創商品。此外，由平安符視覺意象所發展出來的各種設計產品亦琳瑯滿目，為平安符文化創意設計帶來無限商機，頗具研究價值和空間。本研究以臺灣人民最重要的信仰之一－媽祖為例，以田野調查法為主，主要樣本以實際走訪台灣各地媽祖廟進行收集，或透過親友代為收集，部分透過信函等，由廟方動提供。先就傳統媽祖平安符進行設計分析，進一步探其視覺設計元素如何結合現代設計創意，為臺灣平安符文化創意設計進行完整研究並提出具體而可行的建議。研究結果顯示，臺灣平安符文化極具特色，是臺灣文化創意設計產業值得關注的一塊，不僅在設計上極具發展空間，亦潛藏無限商機。
