Experimental Foundation’s Spring Fellowship with revalu supports practice-based research by emerging architectural practices with applied industry experience. The Fellowship is aimed at practitioners who seek to contribute to atransformative shift in the building sector. It is intended for architects collaborating with clients (developers, public or private) or industry partners who seek to implement regenerative, circular, and climate-conscious solutions in pilot projects, through innovative, systemic-analytical approaches.

With a focus on applied project planning and delivery processes, and the exchange and dissemination of knowledge, the Fellowship strengthens both research and practical implementation. It enables architects to test and document strategies with regenerative materials, while expandingtheir expertise and professional visibility. At its core is “Phase Zero” – theinitial concept and design phase – where participants assess existing conditions, analyze needs, monitor life cycles, and make informed decisions about materials, interventions, and collaborations.
