Cultural Center
The Batumi Chess Palace is a landmark cultural center in Georgia, designed as a premier destination for chess enthusiasts. The building's design draws inspiration from an unfolded chessboard, with the black and white facade pattern reflecting this theme. A large scale chess piece sculpture at the entrance further emphasizes the connection to the game, making the space both functional and symbolic.
