We were excited to see Small Creek included in a story about rewilding and naturalisation projects in Australia, published today in The Guardian.
The article quotes our client, Ben Walker, who during his tenure at Ipswich City Council was a true project partner with Landscapology and Bligh Tanner, and a staunch champion of the process and upfront community engagement.
It was an honour to be included alongside a bunch of such wonderful projects.

We were thrilled and honoured to receive the Award of Excellence in Land Management at the recent Australian Institute of Landscape Architects Queensland Awards, for our project Big Plans for Small Creek.

My duties - if you could call something so enjoyable a duty - included hosting a session featuring Australian artist Robyn Backen, and landscape architects Matthew Flynn and Ana Maria Pinto from Costa Rican practice, VIDA.
My grandparents used to live in Townsville so it was a place I visited often as a kid. It's been a long time since I've been back, though, so here are a few thoughts from a whirlwind trip.
