Editorial Desk

Open correspondence for regional contributors

We read every dispatch proposal and reader note directly. Please use the form to submit field notes, photography rights inquiries, or corrections.

Submissions

Technical criteria and review timetables

We accept written dispatches between 1,500 and 4,000 words accompanied by medium-format film scans or cohesive 35mm series. Material should focus on architectural vernacular, local artisan practices, and unmapped cultural crossroads rather than itinerary checklists.

All submissions are reviewed fortnightly by our editorial desks in Kyoto and Lisbon. Due to the volume of independent proposals, we only respond directly to pieces moving into our publishing queue.

Welcoming slow-travel perspectives from under-documented routes

We maintain an ongoing interest in quiet crossroads and forgotten regional histories.
