Geoffrey Bawa (1986)

This first major book on a truly remarkable architect, Geoffrey Bawa of Sri Lanka, casts long-awaited light on the full significance of this man’s work. Highly personal in his approach, evoking the pleasures of the senses that go hand in hand with the climate landscape and culture of ancient Ceylon, Bawa brings together an appreciation of the western humanist tradition in architecture with the needs and life styles of his own country. Condition: 2inch closed tear to dust-wrapper’s front panel. Dustwrapper a little tanned. White boards a little toned to extremities, otherwise very good.
