The Alastair Swayn Foundation has announced that the first round of its 2022 architecture and design grants program is now open for applications. The submission period will close on 11 April 2022.
In an expanded program, individuals, groups and organizations may apply for the foundation’s grants, which are available in two categories: Design Strategy ($10,000) and Design Thinking ($5,000).
Design Strategy grants are intended to support innovation and research into areas that pose significant challenges to architecture and design in Australia, while Design Thinking grants are awarded to those whose architecture and design research aligns with at least one of the foundation’s guiding principles.
The grant program continues Alastair Swayn’s legacy by supporting and nurturing the Australian architectural and design community. In keeping with the foundation’s commitment to transparency, grants previously awarded to those who promote the advancement of architecture and design through research, education and exhibition may be viewed here.
More details about the application process are available on the Alastair Swayn Foundation website.
Applications will close on 11 April 2022.
