Design is evolving, and so is the Dynamo! grant. Dynamo! now supports emerging designers in the development of locally rooted projects, offering the winner the opportunity to relocate to a place of their choice to carry out a socially or environmentally innovative project.
How much is the grant?
The awarded designer will receive an €8,000 grant to assist with their relocation and facilitate the launch of their project, along with a €3,000 budget to produce a presentation video.
Who can apply?
A professional designer on the French art scene (who has been working or residing in France for at least 5 years, or a French national living abroad) who is at the start of their career (no more than 5 years of professional experience).
For what kind of project?
This grant aims to support a designer in the development and implementation of an innovative project relating to the fields of object design, graphic & multimedia design, textile & fabric design, fashion design, or space design, in a location of their choice in France. The project must display a strong social or environmental dimension (responsible consumption, circular economy, sustainable mobility, territory revitalisation, health care, equal opportunities, etc.).
The recipient has a year to complete their project.
What are the application requirements?
The application must be submitted in French. The process is available on ADAGP’s application platform.
