Born in Colombo, Sri Lanka, Bawa studied law in England before discovering his passion for architecture. He went on to study at the Architectural Association School in London, where he was influenced by the modernist movement. Bawa's architectural style, often referred to as tropical modernism, was characterized by his innovative approach to blending traditional elements with modern design principles. He was known for creating buildings that seamlessly integrated indoor and outdoor spaces, allowing nature to become an integral part of the architectural experience. His designs often featured open courtyards, verandas, and lush gardens, creating a sense of harmony between the built environment and the natural world. One of Bawa's most famous works is the Lunuganga Estate, his own country home located in Bentota, Sri Lanka.

In addition to his residential projects, Bawa also worked on commercial and public buildings, including hotels, schools, and government buildings. His influence extended beyond Sri Lanka, with projects in countries such as India, Indonesia, and the Maldives.
