Sophie Radich School is nominated for ‘The Timber Project of The Year - 2022’

2 March 2023

We are thrilled that our architectural design of Sophie Radich School is among the three candidates nominated for ‘The timber project of the year - 2022’ by Norsk Treteknisk Institutt (Norwegian Institute of Wood Technology), Trefokus, and Byggeindustrien. It is a Norwegian award highlighting the increasingly prominent position of integrating timber.

With an eye-catching red color, the large-scale timber construction of ‘Sophie Radich School’ is a new forward-thinking school for more than 720 pupils in the Norwegian city of Lillestrøm.
Aiming to connect the architecture and the surrounding landscape, Sophie Radich School functions as an attractive and inviting meeting space that evokes curiosity and pride.

The architectural design is the result of a strong collaboration between Lillestrøm Kommune , Kruse Smith, and Arkitema.

The winner will be announced on March 22.
