Tbilisi Architectural Biennial

What Is the Tbilisi Architectural Biennial For?

The topics of the biennial are intended to solve specific problems. As such, the founders of the biennial have studied buildings from the period of transformation that followed the fall of the Soviet Union, talked about the capricious architecture found in Tbilisi, and studied the needs of the people living in the city, namely, what is necessary to create appropriate and desirable living spaces for them.
