About Family Hotel Toi

He wāhi takutai hauora i Georgia a Abastumani. I mua, he pā tawhito kei reira. Ahakoa ngā tūāpapa o ngā whare rangatira tawhito, karekau he mea nui hei pupuri. Heoi anō, kei reira ngā tūāpapa o ētahi wāhi tauhirawhe mai i te rau tau 19, tae atu ki te wāhi o tētahi whare tawhito, me tōna hoahoa i te āhua o te whare māmā kotahi papa. Nā te hiranga ō-hītori o te whare, i whakataua kia puritia ētahi wāhanga o ngā tūāpapa i te wā whakahou, me te tāpiri i te pā hou me ngā rauemi ngāwari me te karāhe whakapaipai.

Production Technology
In addition, due to the limited allowance to the building and the scarcity of land, there is a plan proposed by our client for a small family-owned hotel with a common dining area and several terraces. It is noteworthy that the side of the stained glass overlooks Abastumani forest, owning its existence to it and creating vast space in the interior with modern fireplace.
Design Challenge
One part of the building today is in ruins, while maintaining the other part obsolete.

Research
Abastumani is 260 km away from the capital of Tbilisi. Abastumani is regarded as a moderately dry resort. Abastumani is known for its healing climate and sulfur waters. Abastumani is considered as a balneological resort due to its thermal waters. However, there are ruins of several historical sites dating back to 19th century, including the site of an old Bossel, with its architecture expressed in the form of a single-storey simple building.
Inspiration
In the past there was a historical fortress-town of Odzrkhe near Abastumani Odzrkhe ceased to exist in 15th century, when it was renamed with its adjacent village of Abastumani. Apart from the ruins of the old castles, there is not much to hold on to.
