Basic Regulations of the Netherlands Architecture Fund
The basic regulations centres on working on concrete design assignments that are related to socio-cultural issues. The Fund does not subsidise building projects but, rather, cultural projects that contribute to knowledge development within the design disciplines.
The Fund endeavours to disseminate knowledge accumulated within practice. These projects are aimed at knowledge exchange and knowledge dissemination. They can concern a professional audience or a wider public.
The basic regulations offers possibilities for projects that take place in the Netherlands and are aimed at promoting high-quality international knowledge exchange. These projects require positions to be taken. Where does Dutch practice stand in relation to excellent examples elsewhere? These projects form the input for professional development and a platform for presentation and discussion about Dutch designs and projects.

It forms an addition to existing theory and/or practice, and/or is expected to stimulate new developments in the field of spatial design and/or planning because of its exceptional, exemplary character;
and/or poses questions about current insights and working methods.
Exchange of knowledge.
The project contributes to the exchange of knowledge between parties involved in spatial design and/or spatial planning and concerns current (international) architectural and spatial issues in the broadest sense of the word.
It forms an addition to existing theory and/or practice, and/or stimulates through innovative collaborations exemplary study cases and/or the extent to which underexposed or urgent spatial issues are addressed.
The results of the project should be significant to Dutch design practice.
Public awareness.
The project contributes positively to enhancing public interest in architecture, spatial design and spatial planning in the broadest sense of the word.
There is a relation with current issues and
