Meet a new generation of makers. The Creative Industries Fund NL is presenting emerging designers, makers and architects supported through the Talent Development Grant Scheme. Get inspired by their work and development over the past year, through the exhibition, video portraits, and more!
About the exhibition
Every year, emerging designers active in the fields of design, architecture and digital culture are given the opportunity to develop themselves optimally in artistic and professional terms, thanks to a grant from the Creative Industries Fund NL. The grant gives them time to lay a good foundation for a distinctive and meaningful practice within the creative industries. They are given space to develop themselves as makers and to explore and deepen important themes in their work. They can also invest in lasting relationships, within their own field and the creative industry, and beyond.
