The 36th Annual Sessions of the Sri Lanka Institute of Architects (SLIA) is about to bring in novelty and originality to the architecture arena. The 36th annual sessions will be held from 21 to 25 February at the BMICH Colombo. The theme for this year will be ‘Architecture to represent people and place’ highlighting a variety of innovative zones of architecture. The annual sessions consist of a series of events including the most looked forward event – ‘A18 (Architect 2018) Members’ Work and Trade Exhibition’.

The concept and theme of this year’s exhibition stands out from the rest with a lineup of diverse events. The virtual reality web is a unique and an outstanding aspect of the exhibition this year. The virtual reality web will serve as a mutual electronic forum and platform where the architects will proudly present their products and services in this legendary Sri Lankan Exhibition of Architects. This exhibition will witness a paradigm shift from the norm to a virtual e-exhibition. Visitors would be able to surf, compare and analyse services, materials and information of all products displayed in 300 + stalls with 130+ Architects’ panels via internet.

SLIA President Archt. D.H. Wijewardene in his speech mentioned that, “Architecture has become a very important profession to Sri Lanka with the latest developments that are happening around the country. It is the responsibility of the professionals to guide the general public and policy makers in the right direction to arrive at the most suitable built environment for the people of this country.”

The Architect Exhibition will be inaugurated with grandeur and splendour on 21 February at the BMICH. This most looked forward exhibition will commence till 25 February at the BMICH. The inauguration will be successfully followed by the National Conference on the next day, 22 February at the BMICH.
