I'm a retired Architect from Australia. Many years ago I met Geoffrey Bawa in Sydney. He was commissioned to design a Hotel to be built in Fiji for a company I worked for. He was a true gentleman and a brilliant Architect. I stayed at Lunuganga in 2016. My partner and I visited as many of his works as we could whilst touring lovely Sri Lanka.

I have lost count of the times I have watched this video. Every time it gives me goosebumps. It is like the BBC series, "Through the Key Hole", if not better. Credit goes to person behind the camera, the editor & the BGM. A vlog of international standard. Hats 👒 off.

The best architect ever in Sri Lanka. I have visited almost all the hotels in Sri Lanka which has done by him. Such a great personality. Thank you for showing these.

I am Bawa minded in heart and have always loved his work. It is my dream to one day have a property of this nature in Sri Lanka, of course in a a very scaled down version. Frangipani trees, courtyards, rain pattering on the gravels, tropical foliage, all.
