An award-winning project by Tbilisi-based Khmaladze Architects group has been named among Best Architecture Drawings of the year by ArchDaily, a major online platform on the subject of architecture and design.
Their Coffee Production Plant project, designed for a Tbilisi setting, is one of nearly 80 works curated by a team from submissions in what has become an annual custom for the publication for the past five years.
Comprised of the "finest work" from designers who sent in their drawings, the list is seen by ArchDaily as a tool for "sharing architectural ideas, visions, and designs". It encompasses works from the likes of BLVD International and Safdie Architects and architect José Pena.

[These drawings serve as] a demonstration of the symbiotic relationship between perceived contrasts: old craft and new technologies, two dimensional and three dimensional, narrative and analytical, fictional and practical" - ArchDaily
Earlier in 2019 the Khmaladze Architects project - an angular space placed in the context of an open surrounding landscape and its roof serving as vegetation platform - was named as a winner of this year's ArchDaily & Strelka Award celebrating transformative ideas for contemporary cities.
In 2018 the project was selected for the European Union Prize for Contemporary Architecture - also known as the Mies van der Rohe Award - while the Tbilisi-based team had also been featured in the 2014 ArchDaily award for Building of the Year in the Commercial Architecture category, with another design.

A range of other prizes, from the 2012 Archiaward in Tbilisi for their Singapore Waterfront housing project to the 2016 Architizer A+ Award in New York for a seaside resort design, have distinguished their work.
