Materials: Crafting Timelessness with Local Artistry

1. Facade: The choice of locally sourced stone for the facade not only pays tribute to Tbilisi's architectural roots but also ensures a sustainable and contextually relevant design. The textured materials add depth and character, creating a visually compelling exterior.
2. Interior: The interior narrative is enriched with Arte International's Le Corbusier Dots Collection. This collection not only modernizes the space but also celebrates the intercultural diversity of old Tbilisi. Each dot on the canvas becomes a metaphor for the diverse stories converging within the hotel's walls.
3. Walls: Elitis Walls Collection becomes a canvas for storytelling, blending ethnic and cultural elements into the design. The choice of these wall coverings transforms the space into a gallery of narratives, each telling a unique tale of the region's history.

Furniture and FF&E:

The choice of furniture reflects a commitment to quality and aesthetics:

1. Arte International - Le Corbusier Dots Collection: Each piece serves as an artistic punctuation mark, contributing to the narrative of the space.
2. Moroso: The Moroso furniture adds a contemporary touch, creating a dialogue between tradition and modernity.
3. Elitis - Walls Collection: Elitis wall coverings become not just decorative elements but storytellers, enriching the space with cultural narratives.
