The design ideas competition was open to designers from around the world; landscape architects, architects, urban planners and associated design disciplines to develop innovative visions for Latrobe City, in eastern Victoria, Australia to make the transition from a singular economy dominated by the power industry (coal mining and electricity generation) into a diversified economy and prosperous low carbon regional city.
The range of entries submitted from around the world has contributed to the development of a rich, stimulating, and diverse field of enquiry into the issue of the changing nature of cities and the issue of low carbon futures.
