Life experiences in various small towns, big cities, and visits to different places have shaped my perspective and love for the archipelago. The richness of culture and appreciation for local knowledge has been the focus of my exploration in recent years, including the richness of Indonesia’s native plants. Armed with a background in architectural studies with expertise in Theory, History, and Architectural Criticism, Linda has become a faculty member in the Architecture Program at Duta Wacana Christian University (UKDW) in Yogyakarta.
