Discover the architectural legacy of Deshamanya Geoffrey Manning Bawa, a renowned Sri Lankan architect, on this day tour. Influenced by colonial and traditional Ceylonese architecture, Bawa’s designs embraced the essence of modernism and cultural integration. Collaborating with Danish architect Ulrik Plesner, he created iconic structures that showcased his belief in site-specific design and indigenous materials. Notably, Bawa’s influence extended beyond Sri Lanka, leaving an indelible mark on the global architectural landscape. From his famous designs like Sri Lanka’s Parliament building to houses, hotels, and offices, explore the essence of ‘tropical modernism’ that he pioneered. Join us as we guide you through his lasting creations along the southern coast and in Colombo, celebrating the visionary architect’s profound impact.
