Founded by Andreas Grøntvedt Gjertsen and Yashar Hanstad, TYIN tegnestue Architects grew out of an initiative to provide sleeping accommodation for an orphanage in Thailand when the principals were only third‐year architecture students. Norwegian architect Lisbet Harboe explains how the student‐architects built up a practice while in schools by refocusing their studies and those of their peers on learning through their own experiences of construction.
