这是一个建筑师的办公室和住宅，位于斯里兰卡拉贾吉里亚的一个沼泽旁。虽然位于城市边缘，靠近一系列高楼大厦，并靠近主干道，但该建筑的设计就像一个防御工事。它与科伦坡的炎热（通过特别设计的双层屏风限制了西面和南面的暴露）、交通和道路的噪音隔绝，但一旦进入其中，就会看到毗邻的沼泽，并完全渗透到自然环境中。该建筑利用体量创造了许多生活、工作和休闲区域，并利用材料和构造装置在建筑内创造了一个凉爽的微气候，鼓励日光和沼泽景观，收集和调节雨水，并为生物多样性创造花园。设计还考虑到了它的临水位置，创造了花园空间，作为季风期间的滞留区，从而防止生活/工作空间被淹没。

This is an office and residence of an architect, located by a marsh, in Rajagiriya Sri Lanka. Although located along urban fringe near a series of high-rise buildings, and close to the main road, the building is designed like a fortification. It is sealed from the Colombo heat (with specially designed double screens to limit western and southern exposure), traffic and noises of the road but once within reveals unexpected views of the adjoining marsh and is totally permeable to the natural setting. The building plays with volumes to create many areas for living, work and leisure, and also with materials and tectonic devices to create a cooler microclimate within the building, encouraging daylight, and views to the marsh, harvesting and regulating rain water, and creating gardens for biodiversity. The design also takes into account its location by the water, creating garden spaces that act as detention area during monsoons, thus preventing the living/ workspaces from flooding.

该建筑占地2720平方英尺，由三层组成–地面区域有4个停车场、厨房、模型制作室和一间客房，每个房间都通向一个庭院。一楼为大堂，工作空间，二楼为会议区，休息室和图书馆，北翼为一间带阳台的卧室和一间通天浴室。最上层（3楼）有一个生活和娱乐亭，可以俯瞰净化和调节雨水的生物池塘、稻田和可食用花园。

Located on a small foot print of 2720sqft the building comprises of three levels – the ground area has a 4vehicle parking, kitchen, model making room and a guest suit each room opening into a courtyard. The 1st floor comprises the lobby, work space and the 2nd level has meeting area,lounge and library also a northern wing comprising of a bedroom with balcony, and an open to sky bathroom. The upper most level (3rd floor) has a living and entertainment pavilion that overlooks biological ponds that cleanse and regulate storm water, paddy fields and edible gardens.

这个绿色项目采用建筑和景观策略，与建筑一起创造凉爽的小气候。最近由莫拉图瓦大学的一个学生项目对建筑进行的研究表明，建筑内的室内温度比室外低几度。

This green project uses built and landscape strategies to create cooler microclimate with the building.Recentstudies conducted by a student project of University of Moratuwaon the building have indicated that the indoor temperature within the building is several degrees cooler than outdoors.
