As an Architect my architectural focus is sustainable urban development. Being a citizen of Tbilisi, Georgia I have to deal with many different urban issues taking place in my home city. It is a great opportunitie to deal with them in a sustainable way of thinking in order to reshape the city in its best way. Working With A foreign company gives me a lot of opportunities to study internatiuonal cases and implement them into current projects.

• Sustainable Architectural Design.
•  challenges and opportunities in smart city designs.
• evolution of architecture  within specific cultural contexts including aspects of politics, society, religion and climate.
• dynamic interface between man and his environment through its constituent aspects and elements in Architecture.
• principles of architectural design.

I have graduated with distinction from the University of Cambridge in Architecture and Urban Design and from the University of Sheffield in Architecture.
