We have already been blessed by being awarded Project of The Year back in 2019 for the Watergardens but the Kellogg’s project is a whole different kettle of fish… nobody wants soggy Cornflakes for breakfast… I’d like to thank all of the team for their efforts and hope they enjoy the day and fingers crossed”.

The awards have received the largest numbers of submissions since their inaugural event back in 2017. It is a great achievement to even make the finals and all category entries are very strong which is a reflection of the work executed in liquids.
