Thirty third lane house.
Geoffrey Bawa was a Sri Lankan architect born in 1919 who is considered the principal force behind tropical modernism. He designed his own home in Colombo, Sri Lanka between 1960-1998 which fused vernacular architecture with modern concepts. The 6000 square foot home is composed of four houses Bawa acquired and transformed into a single mansion, respecting the site and incorporating local materials and water features into the design.
