Sidonie was awarded a ISS Institute and Pratt Foundation fellowship to study the design and construction of Roof Top and Vertical Gardens.
On March the 23rd she leaves for Singapore, here she will meet with a company providing the infrastructure to retro fit Green Roofs and will look at some of the civic works, the Singaporean Government has just granted $70 million towards Green Roof installation, they can obviously see the benefits of Green Roofs.
She is then off to NY to work with Daniel Richards in his new capacity at The Plant Specialists and to make a number of site visits, then Chicago & Toronto to look at 2 of the fastest growth areas in Green Roof construction, then the Green Roof for Healthy Cities conference in Minneapolis and to complete 2 design courses.
Arriving home in Brisbane on the 7th May, I am sure overflowing with ideas, information and ready to change the way Australia looks at and thinks about its roof space.
