Team Architrave

Colombo

“Established by leading Sri Lankan architect Madhura Prematilleke, Team Architrave holds fast, wherever possible, to its manifesto, pledging, amongst other commitments, to: “build less…build light…build slender”.

Those dictums are seen nowhere better perhaps than at Haritha House, a clear example of the practice’s ambition to subtly meld light physical structure with its natural surround.”

The practice applies other elements of its manifesto to its work on uniquely personalised family homes and boutique hotels. We are particularly fond of: “Build need, not greed - necessity is cool, excess sucks.”
