PRINTWORKS, DUBLIN — PART 4 This is the fourth part of a four-part series on the Printworks in Dublin, which in summer 2001 won the Silver Medal for Housing from the Royal Institute of the Architects of Ireland (RIAI). In two houses built in Dublin's inner suburbs, Derek Tynan has used his evolving collage-like technique, of what might be termed heterogeneous rationality, to impressive effect.

POSTCARD FROM NEBRASKA Dear ArchitectureWeek, I've just completed the installation of a large glass mural as part of a renovation of the 60-year-old Love Library at the University of Nebraska in Lincoln. This vestibule wall totals 52 linear feet (16 meters), made up of 18 panels, each 3 feet (91 centimeters) wide by 6.5 feet (2 meters) high. This is one of the most detailed kiln-formed art glass piece in the world, with text, photographs, and drawings reproduced in relief, part of a wall project created with the close collaboration of architect Greg Newport of the Clark-Enerson Partnership.

HIGH DESERT MODERN The Atacama Desert, in northern Chile, is one of the driest deserts on earth. It is a startlingly brutal place where boiling geysers burst through mountain plains caked in salt, and jagged red rocks give way to massive sand dunes and desolate open salt flats. Extreme temperatures jolt your body and dry up your eyes and skin while dust fills your clothes.
