Abstract
Tbilisi has undergone and continues to experience palimpsest transformation shaped by diverse political forces and cultural shifts. The city bears an enduring imprint of the ideology of many empires and political forces. Historical traces are evident, from the whole city to its individual buildings. This thesis aims to analyze political dynamics and their influence on social and spatial changes using the typology of Tbilisi-style courtyard houses as a primary lens to explore how these transformations unfolded over time. The way in which Tbilisi-style courtyard houses came to us today is a result of three centuries of political turmoil. We see the historical shift from authoritarian tsarist regime to the authoritarian communist regime and finally to capitalist democracy.
The Tbilisi style-courtyard houses emerged in the nineteenth century as single - family bourgeois houses ,and were later converted into Soviet communal apartments, following the Post-soviet period with its privatization, which further fragmented these spaces and provoked improvised resident-driven adaptations
