The design field is evolving rapidly – not only are the boundaries between the design disciplines blurring, but theory and practice also seem to be merging. These developments ask for new, up to date work formats and presentation forms. How can design critique, reflection and debate be applied within this changing landscape? And how can reflection on the design practice contribute to defining the significance of design for society? Through this open call, the Fund wants to create room for reflection on the design practice in various forms. Broadening, deepening and approaching design critique, reflection and debate from a plurality of perspectives, stimulates a strong and inclusive design climate.

For who

This open call is open to projects initiated by designers, makers, observers, agencies or cultural institutions that are active within the fields of design, architecture and digital culture or any crossovers between them.

You can submit your project until June 15, 2022.
