The project began in 2021 when the client approached us with the vision of building a modern yet nature-integrated residence in the mountainous village of Akhaldaba, Georgia. From the start, the client emphasized the importance of privacy, functionality, and a strong connection to the landscape. Through site analysis and collaborative dialogue, the concept evolved into a three-block structure that responded directly to the terrain and views. The design process focused on minimizing earthwork and ensuring every space had a purpose and visual connection to nature. Construction began in 2022, with careful attention to material choices, and seamless indoor-outdoor flow. The use of rough concrete and green aluminum details reflects the architect’s desire for raw aesthetics with natural harmony. The completed home has had a profound personal impact, offering both retreat and inspiration, while also serving as a subtle architectural statement in the area with private houses around.
