AILA SA 2009 Landscape Architecture Award for Research & Communication
Adelaide Parklands & Squares Cultural Landscape Assessment Study
Dr David Jones
Citation: The importance of the parklands and squares to Adelaide’s city plan and the cultural landscape cannot be over emphasised. This research study by Dr David Jones provides a comprehensive document, demonstrating clarity of purpose and process. This document delivers outcomes suitable for the broad intended audience, including landscape architects as well as many other professionals and interested members of the public.
AILA SA 2009 Landscape Architecture Award for Planning
The Rundle Project (The Rundle Street Integrated Public Art Masterplan)
WAX Design, Tanya Court, SPUD and Naomi Horridge
Citation: The project demonstrates an innovative approach to planning for public art in the urban landscape. Using public art typologies and many techniques from the urban design framework process, such as responding to the social and urban context of the street, this document demonstrates a structure for future public art proposals. The collaborative team of landscape architect and artists creatively responded to the brief, and this approach is reflected in the design of the document that challenges conventional ways of representing information.
AILA SA 2009 Landscape Architecture Award for Planning

Taylor Cullity Lethlean with Tonkin Zulaikha Greer
Citation: The project was impressive for South Australia through extensive collaboration with other professions and early integration into the design process, resulting in integrated landscape and urban design principles within the engineering project. This demonstrates an innovative approach in South Australia for major infrastructure projects and a broader understanding of the skill set of the landscape architecture profession.
AILA SA 2009 Landscape Architecture Award for Design
Studio 9 Courtyard
Oxigen
Citation: This project demonstrates how an innovative approach to a difficult “left over space” around the built form can be transformed into an experimental and playful design solution. The small space and minimal budget, using recycled materials and limited palette of planting, has produced a striking and lively courtyard design.
AILA SA 2009 Landscape Architecture Award for Design
Lartelare
Taylor Cullity Lethlean
Citation: This project was impressive for its underlying sustainability philosophy that has produced a landscape inspired by natural processes within a residential precinct. This project should be the benchmark for the profession for this type of residential development. The built elements in the landscape show high quality, robustness and use of sustainable materials.

The project is well designed with high quality of detailing, and a clarity and legibility that expresses the design concept.
