Boroondara’s Urban Design Awards are back for 2023 and we’re calling for entries.
Architects, project managers, developers, home owners, business owners, design enthusiasts and you … Anyone can nominate an exceptional new building in Boroondara for an Urban Design Award.
We award high-quality designs and trailblazing builds that elevate our streetscapes and environment, from heritage extensions to multi-home developments, new schools or business centres. We want to celebrate innovative and first-class contemporary urban design across our municipality and communities.
New award: Best sustainable design
A new award for 2023 recognises our community’s interest in protecting the environment and meets a commitment in
our Climate Action Plan to consider the environment in all decision-making – including when designing buildings.
The award for best sustainable design emphasises architecture that is built to last, saves energy resources and minimises impact on the environment.
