UO students win national ASLA award

A collaboration by two University of Oregon students has won an honor award from the American Society for Landscape Architecture, ASLA announced Tuesday.

Landscape architecture student Anna Hook and architecture student Heather Rusch teamed to create designs for a mixed-used development adjacent to a riparian ecosystem on a site in Southeast Portland.

The project’s faculty advisers were Brook Muller and Ron Lovinger.
The award was one of three given in the collaboration category. The 2007 student awards, won by 25 projects from 22 schools, will be presented Oct. 8 at the ASLA annual meeting in San Francisco.
