  • Artist's Retreat by architect Palinda Kannangara is a split level house with a close connection to the natural environment. The ground floor has a feeling of garden pavilions, the living and dining/studio space, without doors or windows, are settled in between gardens. This creates a feeling of living and working outdoors as the boundary between interior and exterior is erased. The upper floor is more private and secure with three bedrooms, a living space and 20 X 20 feet (7 X 7 meters) rooftop lily pond.
    Direction & Cut: Amanda Forslund & Pixel Morph
    Camera: Pixel Morph & UD Niko

    Beautiful Architecture. For the longest time, we have admired Sri Lankan Architects. We see a beautiful influence of Bawa's philosophy manifested here in serenity.

    being a german gardendesigner, floristmaster, connected to auroville; my Statement: I have to admire that house. it is not hopeless , redundant luxury. it serves the essential Needs of a human being, may be one can do it even a bit more ecological (mud, earthstone) , but the design with all the penetrating nature is great. a sophisticated, decent home.

      Would live in a unfinished building forever ?
      To leave it like that can give bad vibes.
      India has lots of buildings which are half demolished or unfinished.
      It gives a feeling of poverty and helplessness isn't it !?
      This isn't simplicity.

      They're probably just copycats and not even uni graduates at architecture or design. I particularly hate the one I employed for my house. Except for false ceiling he didn't even have good knowledge of colour, atleast not better than me. And I'm not even from arts background. Still their business goes on as usual, got clients...

      Fish like guppy eat mosquito larvae. That pond was not merely a piece of standing water, there were suitable wetland/ semiaquatic plants there, which would probably attract dragonflies, whose larvae also eats mosquitoe larvae

      Ese tipo de construcción no es barato. No es para pobres. Claro; se puede llevar el concepto; por supuesto. Pero si Ud. observa la mayoría de la gente "pobre"; no le interesa el concepto de la "Belleza". Yo soy pobre económicamente; pero tengo educación de clase media y soy diseñador; le puedo decir; que he tratado de ofrecer gratis a varios amigos y conocidos, diseños modernos y accesibles a sus bolsillos...NUNCA aceptaron y construyeron cosas básicas y primitivas que no hacen ni benefician al Espíritu ni a la Mente. Puedo hablar mucho al respecto. Es solo ver lo que son las casas en la mayoría de los pueblos de América.

    Beautiful, open concept, spacious house...loved the exposed brick which gave a rustic look and the saffron coloured plaster which gave an earthy look..I built a small earthen house in the central hills of Sri Lanka..it was a challenge in a time where this sort of thing is mainly attempted by eco hotels. I used reclaimed doors and windows from Pasyala and the rooftiles are also reclaimed. It has a timber loft too. I have been living there since last March and have had no practical issues to note.

    Very beautiful sir. How peaceful to be around the lotus pond. When I see architectures in Asia like Bali, etc they all so serene and naturally beautiful. Their culture and the way of live helps them to create a place, not only a house, even small restaurant buildings have some artistic touch. For those questioned about mosquito, they have lemongrass plants, lotion and spray which smells wonderful. The fish in the pond will eat the mosquito larvae. Better than having the ugly mosquito slide door we have here in the US.
