REPUBLIC —
Entertainment Area & Public Space
Unity of Plenty
From the beginning of its origin, mankind was striving to unite. Some argue that it's the main reason why we survived and reached prosperity as a race.
State (in latin "Res publica") is the highest form of organization of human society, it always has a multi-level structure where each individual plays a certain role, which leads, ideally, to survival and benefit of everyone in the state. This is a unique feature for any kind of state, no matter form, be it communism, capitalism or monarchy and no matter culture, traditions or social norms.
Meant to play an important role in the social and cultural life of Tbilisi, REPUBLIC is based in the center of the city, its a four storey building, it combines concert space, restaurant, wine shop, showrooms, and other types of institutions.
Built around the letter "R", four circles in the logotype for REPUBLIC, represent four floors of the building and at the same time a schematic representation of a hypothetical state where every individual is heard and empowered to play his or her part for wellbeing of everyone involved.
