Bioregional Design Practice _ co-editing
This year's LINA activities are scheduled to take place between January and June 2025. We have selected four main LINA Fellows to participate in the Research Residencies: Kuidas Works, Adam Przywara, Sonder, and Rubble. Each fellow was chosen for their unique perspectives on sustainable practices, particularly in relation to Atelier LUMA's bioregional approach to architecture and design.
Each Fellow follows a similar work plan structured around three phases: investigate & research, connect & design, and implementation. These phases shape the focus of their visits and on-site work in Arles, France. All Fellow activities will be completed by the end of June 2025.
This year, we have introduced two additional components to the LINA programme. First, we have invited former LINA Fellow Jakob Travnik to act as co-editor for a publication summarizing the past three years of LINA x LUMA activities. Second, we are organizing a LINA conference on 27 June 2025, which will include a review of past activities, a preview of the publication's first draft, and presentations of work developed as part of our Year 3 programme.
Jakob Travnik — Publication Co-editor
This project involves co-editing a publication that captures Atelier LUMA's engagement as a member of the LINA platform between 2022 and 2025. During this period, Atelier LUMA has hosted nine fellows whose work explores bioregional approaches to architecture and design. The publication will draw from this collective research, reflecting the diversity of methods and perspectives that emerged through the residencies. It builds on Atelier LUMA's ongoing efforts to document and share knowledge via its newly launched Documentation Tool and wider Knowledge Platform strategy.
The co-editor will play a key role in shaping this material into curated thematic "Collections," working closely with LUMA's LINA team and the tool's development team. They will also develop 2–3 new content pieces—such as essays, interviews, or visual narratives—that interpret how the fellows' bioregional thinking continues to evolve in their own practices. This editorial role combines archival curation, collaborative authorship, and creative storytelling.
