Will travel for landscape We hear from four past winners of the Landscape Institute Student Travel Award about how the opportunity to investigate an international project has had an influence on their practice. The Landscape Institute Student Travel Award was set up in memory of David Ashmore, Adrian Brunswick and Michael Norton, three landscape architects who tragically died in an air crash at Biggin Hill in 1979, with a legacy added to the fund in memory of landscape architect Mary Mitchell after her death in 1988. The award is open to students on an LI-accredited course who want to travel somewhere in the world to
learn about a specific landscape topic or project, and are considered for the award on the basis of an original proposal. Past winners have explored Kyoto’s Temple Gardens in Japan, urban agriculture in Cuba, green infrastructure in Portland, USA, and therapeutic garden design in Sweden.
