Domus Srilanka - October 2017

この号では

Quoting Arata Isozaki, the first to have introduced the concept of “Japan-ness”, the curators Frédéric Migayrou and Yuki Yoshikawa have organised a large exhibition at the Centre Pompidou-Metz to explore the special elements that link the creations of the greatest Japanese architects of the postwar period to the cultural specificities of their country.

A nearly century-old house has been transformed to an eclectic and relaxing boutique hotel, which echoes the elegance of the 1920s through the styling of its interior. Connected with nature and island culture, 55TG Colombo is a representation of the sumptuous artistic styles of Sri Lanka.

Set within picturesque mountains, valleys, forests and lakes, The Kumaon is a boutique hotel that embodies tropical modernism and a structure sensitive of the environment. Highlighting the landscape, the design, by Sri Lankan architects Pradeep Kodikara and Jineshi Samaraweera, stays true to the culture and traditions of Uttarakhand with all elements of construction sourced from the area except for the bamboo.
