The Institute is proud of its Awards programme which provides members and the institute with an opportunity to not only celebrate and reward excellence but also to raise the profile of the profession.

The VXV Plaza within Auckland’s Wynyard Quarter is another of the award winners from 2017.

President Brad Coombs reiterates his call for landscape architects to enter.

“I’d be encouraging everyone in the profession to think about the projects that they have got to celebrate and get those forward for an award in 2019.”
