Held every 2 years, the Boroondara Urban Design Awards recognise and celebrate projects that make our built environment better, from multi-dwelling developments to heritage extensions, new schools or commercial buildings.
The Urban Design Awards aim to:
- promote excellence in urban design and celebrate high-quality, exemplary architecture and design that enriches Boroondara’s character.
- increase the community’s awareness of the benefits of good urban design and the positive contribution it makes to our public environment.
- advocate for sustainability to be at the heart of any future development and at the forefront of design thinking in our city for the benefit of current and future generations.
