Maglivi Building

Challenge

The primary challenge involved creating eco-friendly architecture, drawing from the landscape as a source of inspiration. The final design features openings influenced by the natural scenery, a transformable look, and the ability for each resident to actively participate in shaping the building's appearance.

My Role

The desire I had most was to escape the unfortunate situation in the capital of Georgia, Tbilisi. A prevalent sentiment regarding contemporary architecture in the city is that it's full of glass, unappealing structures, and terrible planning. More and more parks are being destroyed and replaced with buildings; it is crucial to return what we have taken from the city – to nature. If that's not feasible, we should at least establish additional green spaces that are sorely needed. I think we've achieved the objective of establishing a green legacy, at least for inhabitants to appreciate.

Final Thoughts

In summary, maintaining our planet's greenery is of utmost importance; increasing the number of recreational areas, which are currently scarce, is vital. I think this exemplifies how we can incorporate green areas into architecture when it's an integral component.
