The Art Gallery of NSW’s $344 million Sydney Modern Project expansion has created a unique experience of art, architecture, and landscape for everyone to enjoy. The new building’s interwoven gardens fit sensitively into the rocky harborside landscape of Gadigal Country, increasing the site’s biodiversity and bolstering Sydney’s Cultural Ribbon.

Contaminated post-industrial sites proliferate across Australia. Brownfield sites sit vacant, often still housing the infrastructure that contaminated the soil in the first place. The Delprat Cottage site, located on the former BHP steelworks in Newcastle, now accommodates experimental gardens using low cost, natural, phytoremediation techniques to restore toxic land.
