Congratulations to Stuart Dun, who has received a President’s Award from the New Zealand Institute of Landscape Architects Tuia Pito Ora (NZILA).
This honour recognises Stu’s leadership of the Creative Panel for last year’s NZILA Conference, where his thoughtfulness and collaborative approach helped shape a programme that celebrated diverse voices and meaningful kōrero across the profession.
Awarded at the 2025 NZILA President’s Cocktail Evening, a President’s Award is a discretionary honour given in recognition of outstanding contribution to the profession. Stu joins a select group of practitioners whose mahi has helped advance the discipline of landscape architecture in Aotearoa.
It’s a well-deserved acknowledgement of the depth, care, and creativity Stu brings to his work – and a reflection of the values we hold close at Studio Pacific.
Ngā mihi nui, Stu.
