PROJECT COMPLETED

2015

PROJECT TYPE AND SIZE

Old hospital institution, temporary home for refugees applying for asylum

 

Place: Oslo, Pilestredet, Norway

Description: Røde Kors was given this building to house refugees one night at a time while in line for the asylum registration process. All interior were white and the building had no furniture. We got involved in remodelling one activity room and one quiet room for the refugees to use. These rooms gave them a place to sit quiet, reflect, read, draw, play and interact.
