Kringsjå studentby

Kringsjå studentby is a student housing complex consisting of 72 buildings in Nordre Aker that provides accommodations for singles, couples, and families. The settlement sits near Lake Sognsvann in northern Oslo.

The student village was built through several construction phases, with a recent expansion in 2022 adding 500 new apartments. This growth responded to increasing demand for student housing in the city.

The residential complex operates as a self-contained community where residents find daily services, including childcare facilities, a shop, and a café space that hosts evening dining.

The settlement is best accessed on foot or by public transport and sits in a quiet residential area. Visitors should explore the grounds during daytime hours to see the community facilities and enjoy the nearby lake views.

The complex implements climate-conscious construction practices that aim to reduce environmental impact compared to standard building methods. This focus on sustainability makes it a notable example of forward-thinking residential development in Scandinavia.
