Das eigene Wohnhaus in Lunuganga, 60 Kilometer südlich von Colombo, war sein Gesellenstück, das 5-Sterne-Hotel in Kandalama eines der Meisterwerke. Der Name Geoffrey Bawa ist in Europa immer noch ein Insidertipp, im asiatischen Raum gehört er längst zu den gefeierten Kultfiguren der Architektur. Wer sich auf Reisen durch Sri Lanka begibt, kommt an seinem gern kopierten Baustil nicht vorbei. Bawa entwickelte das, was man heute als »Tropische Moderne« bezeichnet: minimalistisch reduzierte Betonstrukturen, die auf traditionelles Handwerk und Naturmaterialien stoßen und der Natur größtmöglichen Freiraum gewähren. Was heute zum globalen Trend avanciert ist, praktizierte Bawa bereits seit den 1950er-Jahren: grüne Architektur, naturnahes Bauen. Ein wichtigste Bauprinzip liegt in den faszinierenden Blickachsen. Eindrücklich dokumentiert die Fotografin Giovanna Silva Bawas Privathäuser, Schulen und Hotels, die ihr auf dem Weg durch Sri Lankas Dschungel begegnet sind.

Der sriklankische Architekt und Anwalt GEOFFREY BAWA (1919–2003) studierte Jura, dann Architektur in England. Seit den späten 1950er-Jahren entwickelt sich sein Werk, mit dem er eine lebendige Architekturszene in seiner Heimat begründete. 2001 erhielt er den Aga Khan Chairsman’s Award for Architecture für sein Lebenswerk. 

Die Fotografin GIOVANNA SILVA lebt in Mailand. Als Bildredakteurin arbeitete sie für Domus und Abitare. Teilnahme an der 14. Architekturbiennale in Venedig mit ihrem Projekt Nightswimming. Diskotheken in Italien von 1960 bis heute. Sie ist Gründerin und Vorsitzende von Humboldt Books.

Mostly works, but..........
I use these at night for sleeping with a CPAP. I am a mouth breather, so my CPAP mask is a full face mask, thus there is constant airflow going into my mouth all night long. While these tablets do help with reducing dry mouth, they only last about 4-5 hrs before they fully dissolve - which does not get me through a full night of sleep. Using two tablets instead of one only gives me roughly one additional hour. If you wear a CPAP mask, you also need to be careful of exactly where you place the tablets, because it will be quite uncomfortable if you mask ends up pressing on the tablet. If the tablet does not adhere well upon initial placement, you pretty much need to fully dry the tablet before re-attempting placement. If the brown side is already wet when you place it against your gums, there is a much higher chance of it just sliding off, instead of sticking. Overall, while not completely eliminating the issue, they do at least reduce the dry mouth problem during sleep.

Stays put and dissolves slowly. Orange flavor is nice.
If you have to use something overnight for dry mouth definitely get these. I use one nightly with my mouth guard. The orange flavor is very nice and it dissolves slowly overnight. It's small enough to do the trick, but not be overpowering. It stays put. And it works. Definitely notice the improvement inside my mouth.

Some of the questions are hard to answer. This book is written more for the Christian who has not been saved for very long.
