| Description: | LURU Magazine is a slow, print-only publication that explores Bangalore through layered, multidisciplinary perspectives. Designed as an editorial pause in a fast city, each issue takes on a thematic lens, bringing together essays, interviews, fiction, photography, archival material, and visual experiments to create a tactile, reflective experience of place. Issue 01 offers a pastiche of voices from the city: city-makers young and old, everyday observations, subcultural maps, and alternative archives. Issue 02, titled The Water Edit (a separate entry), explores water across varied scales, including civic infrastructure, environmental degradation, monsoons, personal rituals, movement and flow, and even waterbirthing. Together, both issues build an evolving portrait of Bangalore as seen from its margins, intersections, and in-between spaces. Design-wise, LURU treats print as a meditative object. Its visual identity is anchored by the LURU Frame, a form derived from Bangalore’s original Kempegowda watchtowers, recurring through grid systems, iconography, and type architecture. Across both issues, editorial pacing is balanced with moments of silence, texture, and space. The magazine is stitch-bound and printed on 129gsm uncoated paper with a UV-spotted, embossed cover. Each material choice reflects the belief that print can slow us down and help us see cities anew. |
