The Jacques Rougerie Foundation supports visionary architecture, design, and art that imagine sustainable living environments in extreme contexts—especially the sea, flood-prone coastlines, and space. Its grants are largely distributed through international competitions and awards, attracting architects, artists, designers, and interdisciplinary creators with concepts in climate adaptation, marine resilience, and habitat innovation. The foundation stands out for blending art, science, and technology rather than funding conventional nonprofit programs.
Primarily annual, competition-based awards with prize grants rather than open-ended project funding. Support is international, highly selective, and likely modest-to-moderate in size, with winners chosen across thematic categories such as Sea, Space, and Flood-prone lands.
Monitor the foundation’s annual competition announcements and submit directly through the competition process. Strong applications should be highly visual and concept-driven, clearly tying the proposal to sea, flood resilience, or space, and demonstrating originality, technical feasibility, and interdisciplinary thinking. There is no indication of a general grant application process; participation appears to be via themed calls and awards.
