Thank you so much for this ! I visited Sri Lanka 7 years ago and went to see Bawas house in Columbo. I was so fascinated by his home and his architectural style . I am not an architect just an ordinary person who can appreciate what an extraordinary person he was . So nice to hear you speak about him with the same admiration for his work. ❤😊
I had the pleasure of working g with Geofrey in the 1970s for 3 years in Madras A great time when be had to be in Madras as he could not live in Ceylon Yes MSP 1 was a friend's RR I managed to find for him We spent a lot onf time in MooreMarket searching for thrown away objects to create wealth in Space A great time till he had to back to SL
Thanks Bhaveeka for giving us an insight into Geoffrey Bawa. Love how he incorporates nature into everyday living..the spaces he creates evokes a poignant sense of era gone by.. wish we could create more such spaces..
Thanks for sharing this conversation. I really wonder what kind of character Bawa has. Because his designs really reflect his (extra)ordinary way of how he sees the world. I can sense a kind of holostic view which doesn't see human and nature as something separates from each other. Which means there is no division between the 'I' and the world. And his designs really speak about that moment, when you just look at the tree without the sense of division at all. It is really peaceful. Then, to define which space is indoor which space is outdoor, private, public, etc. becomes not so important.
He truly was one of a kind and it goes to show that architecture is more than the walls and ceilings; it encompasses everything there is to experience. Thank you for watching the video. "Time is the depository of meaning." - Geoffrey Bawa
perhaps the architect like Mr Anjelendran ,mr chana deswate ,ms Shanti jaya wardhana , mr ranjithalahkoon , ,The artist family of barbara sansoni ,family of ms Ina de silva ,the student of Anjelendran & ms Shanti our lectures Moratuwa university Srilanka .The work of geoffrey bawa in Indonesia ,you may check are the Hyat Bali in sanur .,Plan of Bali oberoi ..with other architect , batujimbar housing ..and some others hotel Still exist . the project in Singgapore ..was not built yet . if you check ms Ina de silva house is good combination of modern & traditional srilankan architecture he made for her . a primary school in colombo ? and a temple in beira lake colombo ...,Bentota hotel and Srilankan Parlement Building .i was nor that sure ..perhaps independece Square in Colombo 7 ?
