The Urban Development Institute of Australia’s South Australian chapter held their annual awards luncheon on Friday 25th October and a Hames Sharley designed (with DKO Architecture) project was among the recipients.

The Glenside development took out awards in three categories: Best Master Planned Development,
Best Residential Development and Urban Renewal.
