architecture/the architect
Tucked away in the serene hills of Mahakanda, The Lone Pine stands as a retreat for Colombo-based architect Godridge Samuel, principal architect of MMGS Architects, crafted to escape the rush of city life and embrace stillness. Here, amidst the whispering pines and rolling valleys, solitude becomes inspiration, and tranquility fuels creativity for his works. The soft light, open vistas and quiet rhythm of nature shape not just a place of rest, but a space where architecture finds its purest form. More than a home, The Lone Pine is a private design studio estate, where minimalism and nature exist in perfect harmony, a space thoughtfully crafted to rejuvenate the creative mind.
