Niggli Verlag Tbilisi: Archive of Transition
The capital of Georgia practically pre-sents a new face every day. Ambitious building projects and large foreign investments are constantly changing the cityscape of Tbilisi. This relentless development is the subject of much debate among the city’s residents: What should be preserved and what may be subjected to change?
