Grange Park Blooming Into a Better Green Space

Eighty new trees will be planted as part of the park revitalization project

Two hectares neighbouring the AGO and OCADU’s Sharp Centre for Design will soon be transformed into its own work of art. PFS Studio and Thinc Design are revitalizing Grange Park with lush gardens, a water feature and an off-leash dog zone. The fence separating the outdoor oasis from the Sharp Centre for Design’s urban plaza will also be removed, and Henry Moore’s “Two Large Forms” sculpture will be relocated here from Dundas and McCaul streets.

Originally published in our Guide 2016 issue as Urban Update: Home on the Grange.

Entrants have until February 13th to submit their best work

It’s that time of year again! The 2026 AZ Awards is officially open for submissions. Recognizing international design excellence from the world’s top architects and designers, the 11 main categories are: Design, Architecture, Landscape Architecture, Interiors, Urban Design, Experiential Graphic Design, Concepts, Emerging, A+ Award for Student Work, Social Good and Environmental Leadership. Last year, AZURE inaugurated the EMERGING Awards to celebrate up-and-coming firms established within the past 10 years in each of the four top categories: Design, Architecture, Landscape and Interiors. Plus, there are more Interiors categories than ever (including Retail & Hospitality, Healthcare, Workspace and Institutional) as well as one recently added in Design (Housewares and Tech Products) — and AZURE will publish its extensive longlist online ahead of the jury-selected shortlist, celebrating a greater spectrum of excellent projects.
