George Chakhava

Cafe Fantasy, Batumi
Bank of Georgia headquarters (2015)

George Chakhava (Georgian: გიორგი ჩახავა, 1923–2007) was an architect from Georgia, best known for co-designing the Bank of Georgia headquarters in Tbilisi.

Chakhava was born in Tbilisi in 1923, and earned bachelor's degree in architecture from the Georgian Technical University in 1949.[1]

The Bank of Georgia headquarters in Tbilisi was originally built for the Ministry of Highway Construction of the Georgian SSR and finished in 1975, at a time when Chakhava was Georgia's Deputy Minister of Highway Construction. It became the headquarters of the Bank of Georgia in 2007.

Chakhava co-designed Cafe Fantasy in Batumi, which opened in 1975, but has been closed since 2000.[2] The Octopus has since been restored and is back in use as a café.

In 1983, Chakhava received the USSR State Prize.[3]
