Woodgate Beach takes out major architecture award
The Woodgate Beach Amenities and Picnic Shelters have taken out a major architecture Award.
The Leisure Precinct took out the 2009 Queensland Architecture Award for "Small Project Architecture" on behalf of Fulton Trotter Architects.
Mayor Lorraine Pyefinch said it was a great result. "We are delighted that this project, funded by Bundaberg Regional Council, has taken out such a prestigious award".
In the Jury Citations the following comments were made: "This group of buildings is a good example of how sensitive design can enhance even the most rudimentary of public buildings".
The Leisure Precinct, made up of an "open plan" amenities block and picnic shelters, has received many favourable comments since being completed last year by Council.
The project is now running for the National Awards, to be held in Melbourne later in the year.
