The building of the former National Scientific Library of Georgia in Tbilisi is an architectural monument of the late Soviet period, made in the brutalist style. This structure was designed by architect Georgiy Bichiashvili and completed in 1985. The building is also known as the Technical Library, which emphasizes its historical role in supporting scientific research and technical information in Georgia and the countries of the former USSR.

The brutalist architectural style that characterizes the building attracts the attention of architecture lovers with its monumentality and functionality. Its extensive use of concrete and geometric shapes make it a prime example of Soviet architecture from this period. This place may be of interest to those who study architecture, or want to gain a deeper understanding of the history and cultural heritage of the Soviet era in the region.

    Замечательное и необычное здание, но, к сожалению, сейчас оно в запустении.

    Здание бывшей библиотеки действительно впечатляет своей монументальностью и отражает дух позднесоветского времени. Такие примеры брутализма ценны тем, что позволяют увидеть не только архитектурные решения, но и идеологический контекст эпохи. Интересно, сохраняется ли сейчас здание в хорошем состоянии и есть ли планы по его использованию или реставрации.

    Completed in 1985, this building stands as a notable example of Brutalist architecture from the Soviet era, designed by architect G. Bichiashvili. Its alternative name is Technical Library, reflecting its past purpose. The design is impressive, showcasing the characteristic boldness and raw materials typical of this style. However, being a structure from the former USSR, it shows some wear and could use a bit of maintenance to restore its former glory. Overall, it's a fascinating piece of architectural history that's worth a visit, even with its small imperfections.

    Brutalistische Architekturliebhaber sollten sich das nicht entgehen lassen! Wirklich beeindruckend und man kann das Gebäude auch betreten. Leider wurde der Sockel durch spätere Umbauten ziemlich verändert.
