Architecture in context
LUMIA is a Tallinn-based team of 14 architects and interior architects, founded by Margit Aule and Toomas Adrikorn, who decided to unite their 15 years’ experience of creating modern contextual architecture.
Space always contains unleashed potential for development, time and room for new buildings and new uses. Our team notices and makes the most of it.
The portfolio of LUMIA features the Pilgrims’ House in Vastseliina, the Episcopal Castle in Haapsalu, the Estonian Embassy in Moscow, Park Hotel Viljandi and the Fahle Gallery Street in Tallinn.
LUMIA is creating architecture that connects with the existing context and provides a new context of its own. The current moment, the past and the future are a single continuum for us, intertwining with space, which has been and will be there. In a globalising world, architecture is becoming more and more uniform while localness is fading away. We are interested in what already exists and what is local, as architectural identity develops from the cultural sphere, the landscape, the climate and the building tradition.
The meanings of our name, LUMIA, are open to interpretation, reflecting our work based on the shared vision and values.
