About the Item
Element Shelf by Nana Zaalishvili
Dimensions: W 125 x D 40 x H 85 cm
Materials: Century Old Oak
‘Element’, which combines furniture of different functions, was created under the influence of the Georgian Oda house and the 'construction element' by the Georgian architect Giorgi Chakhava.
‘Element’ It is the specific shape and its modified dimensions that creates the variations of furniture. Due to the changing structures and variety of materials, the ‘element’ is constantly updated and offers the possibility of functional freedom. It is easy to assemble/disassemble and does not require brackets.
The ‘Element’ collection was influenced by Georgian traditional Oda houses and the 'Construction Element' created by Giorgi Chakhava (1923-2007), an iconic Georgian architect. While working on her book, "Soviet Bus Stops in Georgia" published in 2017, Nana drew attention to Chakhava’s concrete element invention where he used a simple jigsaw like form to assemble various structures. The Element Collection uses the same basic shape to create different pieces of furniture. It’s changing structures and a variety of materials to provide flexible and functional freedom. It is easy to assemble or disassemble and does not require brackets or fixtures. Created and handcrafted in Tbilisi using domestic materials, the collection combines traditional craftsmanship with the contemporary language of sinuous form which makes them appear sculptural. Each piece results from a well-thought through idea and a delicate construction process. These unique pieces are identifiable by their pronounced patterns and imperfections that together give furniture a warm, lustrous quality. Some of the exhibited wooden pieces are made from the supporting beams of a Georgian Oda House. The collection includes chairs, tables, benches, stools, shelves, consoles and many more. Depending on the material, the items can be used both indoors and outdoors.
Idaaf Architects was established in Tbilisi in 2016 and is led by the architect Nana Zaalishvili. Studio works on multidisciplinary principles combining Architecture, Interior Design and Furniture, as well as Research and Material Studies.
Each project is the results from the deep cultural, geographical and site research with the aim of creating timeless yet modern architecture and design in Georgia and abroad.

Galerie Philia
Galerie Philia is an international contemporary sculptural design and art gallery representing emerging and established designers and artists. The gallery is the brainchild of two brothers who share a lifetime passion for art, literature and philosophy. Their distinct academic background sets them apart from their peers, as it sees them following a rhizomatic and transcultural approach in the way they select works. This involves combining elements from multiple cultures in what becomes a network of harmoniously interconnected roots, ultimately revealing the beauty of each unique creation. The gallery’s non-hierarchical curation sits apart from the ephemerality of trends and focuses instead on the true aesthetic quality of the piece – alluring and timeless. Unlike others, Galerie Philia does not focus on a single style – whether minimalist, organic or raw – but rather embraces heterogeneity. The Galerie Philia takes pride in discovering new talents, providing them with multiple international platforms to showcase their latest creations. As well as propelling the newest generation of 21st century collectible design, Galerie Philia also works with internationally known design artists. Galerie Philia has a strong international presence, with galleries in Geneva, New York and Singapore. In addition to their permanent spaces, the gallery organizes temporary group exhibitions and artists residencies in first-class locations around the world.
