1804 Colombo is an architecture and interior design practice specialising in luxury hospitality and private residential projects across Sri Lanka and the wider Indian Ocean region. Each project is approached as a complete environment—balancing spatial clarity, operational practicality, and enduring character, with careful attention to context, materiality, and long-term value.

 

The practice has worked on a range of hospitality and residential commissions, including boutique hotels, destination dining environments, and private residences in both urban and heritage settings. Particular consideration is given to preserving the character and architectural integrity of places with an established identity.

 

Design decisions are shaped by an understanding of lifestyle, experience, and long-term use. Rather than following trends, the studio focuses on creating environments that remain relevant and functional well beyond completion.

 

1804 Colombo operates as a principal-led practice, ensuring continuity from concept through to implementation. By undertaking a limited number of commissions each year, the studio is able to maintain a more considered, responsive, and discreet approach to private client requirements.
