A series of immersive editorial projects by Minimal Instinct
Each residency is an opportunity to spend time with a place to understand it through the people, institutions, and establishments shaping its cultural identity.
Through original photography, essays and conversations, each chapter becomes a lasting study of thoughtful living in context.
