The Talent Grant 2024-2025 has been awarded to Jacob Heydorn Gorski of the Academy of Architecture Amsterdam with his proposal 'Water zien branden' ('Seeing Water Burn'). With this proposal, he aims to draw attention to design thinking about wildfires in the specific context of the Netherlands as a water-rich country. Among other things, he wants to engage key stakeholders in this conversation and organise an exhibition.

Alongside winner Jacob Heydorn Gorski, Noa Schouten (Wageningen University & Research) and Wueng Kee Ong (Delft University of Technology) were nominated. The Talent Grant is an initiative of the NHBOS Fonds and offers financial support of €5,000 for a project by a recently graduated landscape architect.
