Chapman Taylor Group Board Director Marcelina Zielinska to Speak at Tbilisi Architecture Forum 2025

Chapman Taylor Group Board Director Marcelina Zielinska will be speaking at the Tbilisi Architecture Forum 2025, taking place on 27 September at Expo Georgia, Tbilisi.

This landmark international event, themed “The 5th Dimension: Architecture as Human Experience”, will explore how architecture shapes emotions, identities, and the cities of the future.

The programme will feature world-class keynote sessions, panel discussions, and roundtables across architecture, interior design, and urban planning, alongside workshops and exhibitions showcasing innovation and experimentation. More than 600 professionals, creatives, and students from around the globe are expected to attend.

Marcelina will join an impressive line-up of international speakers, including representatives from Foster & Partners, Zaha Hadid Architects, and WilkinsonEyre.

Speaking ahead of the event, Marcelina said: “Architecture is ultimately about people, how they feel, connect, and thrive within the spaces we create. I look forward to joining the debate in Tbilisi and sharing Chapman Taylor’s perspective on design that enhances human experience while responding to cultural, social, and environmental contexts.”

With its rich heritage and growing reputation as a hub of creativity and innovation, Tbilisi provides the perfect backdrop for this forward-looking conversation on the future of architecture.
