Few architects achieved his harmonious fusion of local building traditions with modern forms and sensibility.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBawa's early works were houses that artfully married vernacular styles and responses to climate and site with a modern architectural vocabulary. Soon, his talents were applied on a larger scale, to the Sri Lanka parliament, a number of carefully situated and designed hotels, schools, offices, and other public buildings. The summation of his oeuvre is symbolised by his own two residences—a house in Colombo and a residential complex in Lunuganga—whose evolution eloquently reflects Bawa's career and personality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis ambitious publication is a comprehensive documentation and appreciation of \u003cem\u003eGeoffrey Bawa\u003c\/em\u003e and his work. It includes a rich portfolio of his most important works, including some rarely published projects. An exhaustive reference section includes a complete chronology.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Thames and Hudson (Australia) Pty Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47647696912620,"sku":"9780500341872","price":115.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/9780500341872-geoffrey-bawa.jpg?v=1779230619","url":"https:\/\/bookhero.co.nz\/products\/geoffrey-bawa-by-david-robson-9780500341872","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
