National Landscape Design Awards 2008

AILDM is proud to announce the Fourth National Landscape Design Awards
To be presented in June 2008 at the AILDM Annual Dinner

The Australian Institute of Landscape Designers and Managers (AILDM) is now well known through out Australia as the place to find a landscape designer who can design site specific, environmentally sensitive and beautiful gardens and landscapes.

To carry on from the huge success of the previous Awards, it’s time once again to celebrate the skills and experience of AILDM members by finding the very best of those gardens and landscapes and showcasing them to the media and public.

There are categories to cover all different kinds of constructed gardens and landscapes including residential, commercial, institutional, conservation and restoration of environmentally sensitive landscapes. As AILDM members are particularly adept at designing with plants, you can also enter your best plantscape design. A new category is being introduced this year to allow members who have finished their studies within the previous three years to enter designs in a category where they are not competing with more experienced members.

Whether you’re in Perth, Penola, Prahan, Point Piper, Police Point or Indooroopilly, all AILDM members can enter and display their skills and expertise.

There will be an award for each category plus a special overall award and prize for the most outstanding design so enter now and be Australia’s best landscape designer!
