内容説明
Geoffrey Bawas architectural work is well documented, but less attention has been paid to his work on gardens. This book focuses on his two most famous gardens: Lunuganga, on his own estate, and the lesser-known garden he fashioned for his brother, Bevis. Evolved over several decades, the gardens and their outbuildings and sculpture represent high points of all-encompassing tropical design. This book begins with a largely photographic overview of Sri Lankas natural features, showing the varied palette of landscapes that inspired Bawas sensitive treatment of architecture. At the very heart of the book is an intimate portrait of two exquisitely detailed gardens and the personalities that brought them into being. But it is also a story about the nature and landscape of an island of exceptional beauty. As such, the book has something to offer followers of Geoffrey Bawa, tropical-garden enthusiasts and to all those seeking a photographic portrait of Sri Lanka.

A beautiful and romantic book. The two brothers are legendary in their design, because they truely express their passion. The mature garden is awe inspiring.

Not many books on Geoffrey Bawa out there. This one does a great job of documenting his life and the two projects it focuses on through their evolution. I may be biased, being from the sub-continent and able to relate to the spaces very easily. Also completely in love with mossy tropical gardens, this book takes me to very happy place flipping through it. Go back in time, eliminate all urban noise, radios, TVs, computers etc. add the slow rhythmic chirps and crackles of nature on cool summer afternoon in the shade... you're in heaven! This book can take you down some colonial history too. Not sure how I feel about that but certainly the lives lived by the privileged back then were nothing short of amazing. Today's world can not produce such a style, contextual to its time, environment, abundance and wealth.
