The Society of Garden Designers has announced ten finalists across three award categories

The shortlist was chosen by a judging panel that includes SGD Fellows Sarah Morgan, David Stevens, and Tom Massey.

Massey, who joined the judging panel this year says: “It was great to see the range and breadth of projects entered into the SGD Student Awards this year. Going though the high number of entries was a really enjoyable process, and it was wonderful to see such a strong focus on sustainability, biodiversity and sensitive landscape design.”

The winners in the SGD Student Awards will be announced at the SGD Awards Ceremony on Friday 2nd February 2024.
