二十世纪鲜有建筑师能像杰弗里·巴瓦那样，将本土建筑传统与现代形式及美学理念如此和谐而愉悦地融合。过去四十载间，这位建筑大师及其作品在南亚地区已成传奇，其影响力更遍及全球。1919年生于斯里兰卡的巴瓦，在剑桥大学求学后，曾于科伦坡律师事务所工作，后于1950年代重返伦敦，进入前卫的建筑协会深造。其早期住宅作品巧妙融合本土风格，以现代建筑语言敏锐回应气候与场地特征。不久后，他的才华便在更大规模的项目中得以施展：精心设计的多家酒店、斯里兰卡议会大厦，以及各类学校、办公楼与公共建筑。其创作生涯的演变轨迹，正体现在科伦坡与卢努甘加两处居所的变迁中——这些建筑生动映照着巴瓦的职业历程与人格特质。

这部宏伟著作全面记录并赞颂了这位建筑大师及其作品。导论章节呈现巴瓦的早年经历、本土建筑影响及其教育背景，而全书核心部分则收录了他重要的作品集。参考部分附有完整年表。

建筑潮流更迭常受技术热潮驱动，但那些突破边界、跨越历史与风格的大师之作始终值得借鉴。杰弗里·巴瓦的作品为我们所有人提供了宝贵启示。全书收录600幅照片与插图，其中300幅为彩色。

Sri Lankan architect Geoffrey Bawa and the buildings he created have become legendary in the region and influential around the world. Few architects achieved his harmonious fusion of local building traditions with modern forms and sensibility

Bawa'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 symbolized by his own two residences – a house in Colombo and a residential complex in Lunuganga – whose evolution eloquently reflect Bawa’s career and personality.

This ambitious publication is a comprehensive documentation and appreciation of Geoffrey Bawa and his work and includes a rich portfolio of his most important works, including some rarely published projects. An exhaustive reference section includes a complete chronology.
