About

Every project begins with an idea powerful enough to shape the whole building.

The studio

Alpha Architecture is an architectural practice based in Batumi, on Georgia’s Black Sea coast. It has designed homes, hotels, towers and public buildings for more than 25 developers across the country, as far as Tbilisi and the mountain resort of Goderdzi.

Irakli Emiridze

Founder & Principal Architect

PhD Candidate in Architecture

Irakli Emiridze is the Founder and Principal Architect of Alpha Architecture and the creative force behind its work. He leads the practice with a clear ambition: to challenge architectural conventions and create buildings with an identity entirely their own.

For Irakli, every project begins with an idea powerful enough to shape the whole building. Each commission is an opportunity to reconsider how people live, how spaces connect and how architecture transforms its surroundings. His process brings bold imagination into dialogue with the site, programme and engineering, using these conditions to generate new possibilities. Every project develops its own architectural language, composition and character.

Irakli defines the vision and personally leads the multidisciplinary team through every stage of design. Architecture, structure, building systems and details develop together under his direction, carrying the central idea from its first expression into a complete, technically resolved project.

He works on a diverse range of projects, including residential, hospitality, mixed-use, cultural and commercial developments.
