Landscape Australia Conference 2018

The 2018 Landscape Australia conference, to be held on 5 May in Sydney, will present six design practices from across the Asia-Pacific that are creatively and optimistically tackling the complex challenges of the twenty-first century through landscape architecture, horticulture, garden design, architecture and urbanism.
