Today’s edition of The Guardian brought praise for Le Korsa’s latest project, the new maternity and pediatric ward at Tambacounda Hospital in Tambacounda, Senegal. Architecture and design critic Oliver Wainwright referred to the building as “a stunning hospital saving lives” with “poetic touches that make the clinical environment feel like a place of care.”

Le Korsa is thrilled and we celebrate this incredible building with the doctors, nurses, midwives, patients, and people of Tambacounda.

We want to thank Manuel Herz, our friend and partner on this project, for his beautiful design and hard work in helping us to realize this vision. Also, a huge thank you to The Josef and Anni Albers Foundation and all of our donors who gave generously to help this much needed facility open its doors and serve the women and children of Tambacounda.
