Synthesis of ancient and modern. Private House in Tvaladi by NS STUDIO

Located in the small town of Tvaladi, the architecture studio NS STUDIO has designed a 700 sqm private home. The town is located in the Kareli district, belonging to the Inner Iberia region, located in central Georgia.

The house, formed by several volumes around a patio, represents the synthesis of old and new, expressed through the combination of modern forms with the existing stone facade.

The private home designed by NS STUDIO has one floor on its entire surface and a second on one of its sides. The ground floor, with the communications area located in the center of the house, has public rooms such as the kitchen, dining room, and living room on one side and the private area, with the bedrooms, on the other side with an entertainment room on the upper floor.

The house is built with stone and wood, placing large windows on the facades that allow views to the outside and make nature part of the interior, while ensuring that the volume is integrated into the environment. In addition, a cellar was created perpendicular to the house, with the same composition as the house, and an outdoor area with a kitchen and pool in front of it.

Project description by NS STUDIO

The private house in the Georgian village of Tvaladi represents a synthesis of old and new, which is expressed by the combination of modern forms and the old stone façade. One-storey volume is built of stone and wood constructions, which are to some extent a large part of the interior. Large format apertures on the façade allow us to turn the surrounding nature into part of the interior and get the volume better combined with the environment.

The interior focuses on the symbiosis of rough and subtle elements and their balance. There was placed a cellar perpendicularly to the house, with the same architectural visual that creates an overall composition of the area.
