Best Landscape Design

Bangladesh Horticulture Society

Awarded for the Riverside Public Park scheme, which the judges singled out for planting that survives a monsoon and a dry season without irrigation — and for keeping the maintenance access designed in rather than added afterwards.

2024Rooftop Garden of the YearUrban Green ForumFor a 4,000 sq ft roof terrace carried on an existing slab with no structural strengthening — achieved by specifying a lightweight growing medium and placing every heavy planter over a column line.
2023Green Campus AwardDhaka City CorporationRecognising the university quadrangle that had flooded every monsoon and stayed fenced off half the year. Drainage, not planting, was the fix; it has stayed open through two rainy seasons since.
2022Sustainable Planting PrizeNational Nursery AssociationFor two hectares of embankment planted with deep-rooted natives on rainfall alone, with no irrigation and no budget for any. First-year losses came in under eight per cent.
2021Excellence in MaintenanceBangladesh Garden CouncilAwarded on the strength of contract renewals rather than a single site: the same crews returning to the same gardens, with a written record of what was done left behind after every visit.
