Western Lookout and Walkway, Pinnacle, Mount Wellington

Tecton Projects, Hobart City Council

Client: Hobart City Council and the Wellington Park Management Trust

Jury Citation: The Western Lookout and Walkway, Pinnacle, Mount Wellington superbly manifests a richly layered design concept that is at once sensitive yet robust, sculptural and functional. It is elegant and has an economy of form and detail.

It also pays homage to its magnificent setting and broader contemporary and historical cultural context. Fine detailing and thoughtful use of recycled and natural materials result in an exemplary example of what can be achieved within a modest budget.
