Alvim Kindergarten
Located in the Alvim district of Sarpsborg, Norway, this project addresses a specific need for expanded childcare capacity within a residential context characterised by a high proportion of low-income households.

The project reached completion within a twelve-month timeframe from site acquisition to the start of the academic term.
