A postgraduate landscape architecture student at Victoria University of Wellington has won a major international award for her landscape architecture project to help redevelop Carterton’s Hurunui-o-Rangi Marae.
Claudia Boyo, who is in her final master’s year as a landscape architecture student at the University, won the International Federation of Landscape Architects (IFLA) President’s Choice Award at the International Biennial of Landscape Architecture held recently in Barcelona. This award is given to the top project from a selection of five projects that selected schools of landscape architecture present at the Biennial.
“This is a prestigious and important international event that every two years celebrates the best landscape architecture projects and the top designs of the best schools of landscape architecture in the world,” says Carles Martinez-Almonya Gual, one of Claudia’s lecturers at Victoria University of Wellington’s School of Architecture.
