Who We Are

The European platform LINA is a network connecting relevant institutions with emerging practitioners and thinkers who work at the intersection of architecture and other fields related to spatial culture: it aims to promote up-and-coming talent. LINA’s goal is to steer design and building processes towards regenerative practices and principles of de-growth in line with the values of the European Green Deal.

A growing alliance of museums, universities, research networks, foundations, triennials, biennials, and other European and Mediterranean organisations—LINA members—carries out a series of events taking place all over Europe. The LINA Architecture Programme is supported by the European Union within the eligible countries of the Creative Europe Programme.

The platform is coordinated by the Faculty of Architecture of the University of Ljubljana, Slovenia’s foremost educational institution in the fields of architecture and urbanism. That’s where the representatives of the platform meet up each June, and on Fridays, you can come visit the team (but please shoot us an email first).

The Governing Board consists of 5 representatives of the General Assembly joined by the Head of LINA platform. They confirm all major strategic decisions of the platform, confirm new LINA fellows and select new members of the platform.
