*[Enwl-eng] [can-eecca] Shilda Winery in Kakheti Region, Georgia, among of the 5 most magnificent green architectures around the world

[ENWLine]

 

Shilda Winery in Kakheti Region, Georgia, is one of the 5 most magnificent green architectures around the world  according to the Euronews, which also writes that Georgia is a favorite in this regard.

… “X-architecture is a British cross-disciplinary firm with offices in London and Tbilisi. They have built an extraordinary winery in Kakheti, Georgia, called Shilda. The form is a 'considered response to the environmental factors of the area and the qualities of the wine'. The building is quite literally embedded within the landscape of the vineyards, making it barely noticeable from a birds eye view. What's more, the thermal mass of the soil is used to optimise the cooling of the building, and most of the facade is facing towards the north to avoid direct solar gain, reducing energy waste. Definitely our favourite so far!
