Landscape Architecture Students Won 1ST and 2nd Prize in Kuala Lumpur Orchids Competition

Universiti Teknologi Malaysia (UTM) won the first and second prize in the Kuala Lumpur Orchids and Bonsai show 2017 hosted by Kuala Lumpur City Hall or DBKL at Taman Pudu Ulu, Cheras. There were three competition teams with a group of five (5) students who are the fourth year, third year and second-year students from Landscape Architecture Department, Faculty of Built Environment who were coordinated by Dr Lee Yoke Lai together with two supporting staff (En. Hassan bin Sahat and En. Mohd Azahari bin Md Amin).

All participants had to construct the designed gardens from 28 to 30 November 2017. Two teams with the design concept: ‘The Reflexia and Meraki’ won the first prize and second prize competing with five (5) other groups. Both UTM teams selected colourful orchids integrated with the competition theme ‘warna-warni Malaysia’ to create an interesting and unique garden layout that symbolised multi-ethnic, culturally diverse and peaceful Malaysia. Another UTM team was awarded a consolation prize for their interpretation of “Laman Ikatan Citra” to emphasise the beauty of orchid garden design.

The prize-giving ceremony was held on 3rd December 2017. All the entries were given RM3, 500 incentives by DBKL in the orchid competition. Furthermore, alumni sponsorship of the Institute of Landscape Architecture Southern Chapter (ILAM SC) had contributed to students’ financial support in this competition. All in all, the hard work, design innovation and good teamwork contributed to the performance and success in this university orchid competition.

Again, congratulations on the great achievement by Department of Landscape Architecture for making UTM proud.
