Saturday Story Club: If I Built A House

This one-hour event invites children aged 5–12 to reimagine spaces and create their own “dream” houses.

This interactive session uses storytelling and exploration to introduce children to the basics of architectural design, raise awareness of the spaces they inhabit,  and consider how design can offer solutions to everyday needs. 

Part of the Geoffrey Bawa Trust’s Saturday Story Club, this session will explore the Bawa-designed Kannangara House (now the Geoffrey Bawa Space) and examine how the building was reimagined from house to workplace. 

This one-hour event invites children aged 5–12 to reimagine spaces and create their own “dream” houses. Refreshments will be provided, and adults are required to remain on the premises throughout the programme. Older and younger siblings are also welcome.

By registering for this event, the parent/guardian acknowledges that the Geoffrey Bawa Trust is not responsible for the child(ren).

It is also acknowledged that photographs, audio recordings, and/or video recordings of the children may be taken by the Geoffrey Bawa Trust or its authorised representatives during the programme, in accordance with the Trust’s Social Media Community Guidelines.
