Review: "Dublin-based architects O'Donnell + Tuomey have brought a wealth of exciting buildings to Ireland for the past seventeen years. Their striking modernist works show their appreciation for the country's rich cultural, historic, and civic identity without falling into the trap of typical pitched roofs, gables, slate, and brick. Instead the firm chooses less conventional but more fitting strategies to express something relevant if not immediately visible about their sites." "O'Donnell + Tuomey, the first monograph on the firm, presents fifteen of their institutional and residential projects in an arresting collection of color photography, plans, and drawings. The book includes the much-discussed Irish Pavilion at the Irish Museum of Modern Art, the Ranelagh Multidenominational School, Ireland's Pavilion at the 2004 Venice Biennale, and the Glucksman Gallery at the University College Cork, which was one of six buildings shortlist for the 2005 Stirling Prize."--BOOK JACKET.
