Bawa retrospective at the Vitra Design Museum.

From 26 September 2026, the Vitra Design Museum in Weil am Rhein will be dedicating its most comprehensive retrospective to date to the Sri Lankan architect Geoffrey Bawa – featuring over 250 exhibits, new photographs by Iwan Baan and an exhibition design by the renowned architect Lina Ghotmeh. For architecture enthusiasts, the exhibition is a must-see. Yet “Geoffrey Bawa: Architecture for the Senses” also has a surprisingly concrete message for buyers and sellers of exclusive residential property.
