The 4TU.Bouw Lighthouse Projects program aimed for imaginative research projects, and ran for four years from 2014 till 2017. Through yearly open calls among the researchers of the 4TU.Bouw faculties, a selection of proposals have been granted a funding of € 50.000,- each. The main criteria for selection where: at least two faculties from 4TU.Bouw are involved, the 'imaginative' nature of the reserach proposal, and the promise of a tangible result (e.g. prototype), within the project term of one year. The program has been set up as a 'seed money' approach; relatively small funding amount, short time-frame, set for 'proof of concept', or 'proof of failure'. It has proofed to be a testing ground for extreme and 'out-of-the-bos' ideas.
