We are excited to announce that Small Creek (stages 1 and 2) has won the 2020 AILA QLD Award of Excellence for Land Management.

Congratulations to Landscapology, Bligh Tanner, Australian Wetlands and TLCC who were project partners on the first stages of this incredible creek naturalisation.

According to the citation:

“Demonstrating absolute excellence in landscape architectural planning and design, the Small Creek Naturalisation project has much to be proud of.

“It demonstrates a true collaborative effort between landscape architects, engineers and stakeholders, to achieve an outcome that is both highly functional and also beautiful.

“The project employs clever use of recycled materials, such as the concrete fragments used to frame the inversion channel, whilst placing them artistically and creatively to create more than simply another creek corridor.

“The ecological achievements of this land management project are exemplary, and the project team should be rightfully proud of the precedent they have set for all future creek naturalisation projects.”

You can see more on the AILA Awards page.

Construction of stage 3 of this project is expected to start in coming months.
