What House? Awards 2009 - The Best New Homes in Britain
Category 19 - Best Landscape Design
The What House? Awards are the Oscars of the housebuilding industry, now in their 28th year, and are a celebration of the Best New Homes in Britain. The gala ceremony will be held as a luncheon at the prestigious Grosvenor House hotel on London's Park Lane on Friday 20th November 2009
Entry to Best Landscape Design
Developments are dominated by the houses, but what about the landscaping that surrounds them? Judges are looking for a sensitive, yet practical, response to the site conditions, ensuring that the overall look of the scheme is easy on the eye with landscape features to match the quality of the homes. Entries should be developments that make maximum use of natural features, or create a brand new landscape to complement or enhance the street scene. This is not an award for a development fortunate enough to be set in the most attractive natural surroundings, but rewards the landscaping efforts of the entrant in relation to the scheme and the budget - be it starter flats or a luxury homes development.

Judging
When all entries have been received, an extensive panel of property experts, including architects,surveyors, property writers and industry specialists, will prepare a shortlist of the best entries in each category. Each shortlisted entry will then be visited and a detailed report drawn up before judges reach their final decisions. Up to three awards - Gold,Silver and Bronze - will be made in each category (apart from Category1).
Where entries are deemed of insufficient merit, the number of awards may be reduced in that category.
Written reports detailing the judges' decisions will be made available at the conclusion of What House? Awards presentation luncheon. The judges' decisions are final and no correspondence will be entered into.
Publicity for Winners
Award-winning housebuilders and developments will receive widespread national and local media coverage in an integrated PR and marketing campaign, promoting the builders of the best new homes in Britain.
