To improve the information available on these five architects in the digital sphere, a Wiki-edit-a-thon will be hosted at the De Saram House by Geoffrey Bawa, followed by an Open House Colombo event to visit and experience some of their key buildings. The programme ends with a series of workshops and a public exhibition of reinterpretations or analyses of these buildings through architectural model making. Stay tuned for updates!" } ] } ] ```
