LGN Street Design Awards 2012
Due to popular demand we have extended the deadline for the Street Design Awards by two weeks. You now have until 11th May to enter your project into this competition.
The awards are divided into six categories and are open to all projects completed by, or on behalf of, local authorities. Entering a project is free and all you have to do is provide a 200-word overview and a 500-word design brief of the scheme. Before and after photos will likely be the most compelling part of your entry, so use them well. This information can be contained on a word or PDF document.
There is no limit on the number of projects you can submit for the awards. The closing date for entries is now 11th May 2012.
For more information please click on categories or contact Laura Sharman on l.sharman@hgluk.com or 020 7973 4644.
