The Australian Institute of Landscape Architects (AILA) has announced the winners of the 2016 Western Australian Landscape Architecture Awards.
The awards celebrate the best of the WA’s green, open and public spaces. The awards also recognize the leadership and innovation in landscape architecture projects and their capacity to enrich environments and enhance liveability, economic development and global profile.
Awards were given to projects that promoted quality of design in and around urban environments, and positively impacted the community by realizing the health, social and economic benefits of having green, open and public space in cities.
Projects that received an award of excellence or award at state level will proceed to the national awards, taking place later in the year, where one project will be awarded the best landscape architecture project in Australia.
