Norwegian Students Build Hospital in Lasur Village, India

In Lasur village, Maharashtra, two young Norwegian students, Jan Olav Jensen and Per Christian Brynildsen, designed and built a hospital that feels more like a home. The project, located at Leppers Hospital in Jalgoan, was constructed using local stone and centered around a shared courtyard, fostering a sense of community. The building has since become a home for rural girls, highlighting the importance of architecture in creating spaces of belonging. The project serves as a reminder that meaningful architecture is about more than just function—it's about creating environments where people feel connected and at home.
