The German architecture studio J Mayer H has built a house on a cliff next in Tbilisi. Named as Pipia Panorama, the private residence is located in one of the most visible places in the capital of the country of Georgia, reports dezeen.The location allows fascinating views of the city. To expand these views, even more, the architecture studio has designed the south-facing facade with large windows and terraces. The concrete-framed building forms a canopy over the multiple balconies that stretch across the building, while a zigzag screen creates privacy between the terrace and the Presidential Palace situated next to it.The dezeen report states that the rounded cut-outs in the terraces allow light to reach all levels of the outdoor areas and a roof deck with angular pools and seating areas stretch across the top of the entire house.The studio opted for a two-tone color scheme to give the frame definition. The outer layers that form the canopies and privacy screens are a reflective white, while the inner layers and terraces are an aubergine color. The house has been designed for a multi-generational family living together under one roof.Pipia Panorama overlooks the Rhike Park and the curving reflective form of the as-yet-unopened Studio Fuksas-designed concert and exhibition hall.J.
