PS: The Herald article also has a mistake:
Harry Howard and Associates were the Landscape
Architects for the National Gallery's garden.
Bruce was commissioned earlier for the same job,
but due to government delays in commencing the
National Gallery, he was not available when the
project actually re-commenced.
November 2005:
extract from
online Careers Statement:
GLOBAL
warming is causing a melt-down in landscape architecture
consultancies as governments and property developers
turn to experts to design water-sensitive, user-friendly
vistas.
"There is a serious skills shortage,'' says Australian
Institute of Landscape Architects executive director
Paul Costigan. "There is so much demand that many
firms are working ridiculous hours to try to keep
up with it. It's almost reached melt-down in some.''
