POSTCARD FROM EUGENE, OREGON Dear ArchitectureWeek, The Chapel of Second Chances is an open-air structure intended for second-wedding ceremonies and the renewal of vows. Designed and built by my architecture students at the University of Oregon in Eugene, it illustrates the design potential of reused materials. Besides recycled romance, it will shelter workshops and other educational events.

BARCELONA RUNS DEEP The Poblenou area of Barcelona is experiencing a renewal. As the doorway to the site for the 2004 Universal Forum of Cultures — with themes of cultural diversity, sustainable development, and world peace — this traditional industrial district is taking on a new technological focus.
