BETTER PLACED THROUGH INTEGRATED DESIGN

Image Credit: GANSW



THE GOVERNMENT ARCHITECT NSW (GANSW) PROVIDES STRATEGIC DESIGN LEADERSHIP IN
ARCHITECTURE, URBAN DESIGN AND LANDSCAPE ARCHITECTURE.

At GANSW we:

 * Champion - Promote, educate and advocate for design awareness and excellence
   on behalf of Government, its agencies and partners
 * Connect - Foster public and private sector partnerships, collaboration and
   design collaboration across built environment initiatives
 * Advise - Provide strategic and independent advice and quality review to
   support best practice and outcomes for design projects

By integrating design expertise, we work across government, the private sector
and the community to improve social, environmental and economic outcomes for NSW
and all of our communities.

In acknowledging the traditional Aboriginal custodians of the land and their
unique cultural relationships to place, GANSW seeks to uphold the idea that If
we care for Country - It will care for us.

MOVEMENT AND PLACE



Streets and roads are a major part of the system of public space that helps
connect our places. GANSW collaborated with other agencies on a ‘movement and
place’ initiative to create a shared language and approach to the design of our
streets and achieve better place outcomes for the people of NSW.  This work led
to the NSW Movement and Place Framework.
