Tour Testimonials:

 

“An enlightening experience bringing everyone up to speed with the nature of green roof and wall integration, in both interior and external facades. The tour gave a professional insight into the choice, design and maintenance of substrates, and the latest design trends.”

Ben Pace, ESD Consultant, Cundall

 

"I found the tour very interesting. It was good to see what Sydney is contributing in the field of green urbanism and green roofs in particular. I would certainly recommend the tour to my colleagues and anyone else involved in the future direction of the built environment."

Alex WilliamsStrategic Planner, North Sydney Council
