About RMJA Architects
RMJA is an architectural and design practice based in Colombo, Sri Lanka, founded in 2009 by Architect Rajith Jayawardana.
Our practice brings together architecture, interior design, engineering coordination, project management and cost consultancy to provide clients with a more integrated approach to building design and development.
We work across residential, hospitality, commercial, industrial and healthcare projects, with a particular interest in tropical architecture, sustainable design and creating buildings that respond meaningfully to their environment.
Our work is guided by a simple principle: good architecture should look beautiful, work efficiently and improve the experience of the people who use it.
Every project begins by understanding the client, the site and the objectives of the development before developing a design response that is appropriate to its context.
From personalized residences to boutique resorts and commercial developments, RMJA aims to create architecture that remains relevant, functional and valuable over time.
