O'Donnell & Tuomey
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
O'Donnell + Tuomey is an architectural practice based in Dublin, Ireland.
The partnership was established in 1988 by Sheila O'Donnell and John Tuomey. The pair formed part of Group 91 Architects, the masterplanners for the regeneration of Dublin's Temple Bar district in the early 1990s

The practice has designed a considerable number of notable buildings, including the Glucksman Gallery at University College Cork, the Irish installation at the Venice Biennale 2004, and the Ranelagh Multidenominational School, which won the RIAI Triennial Gold Medal in 2006. They are also known as "studio ninjas", circulating around the UCD studios dressed in black (or darkly coloured) pajama-type clothing in hommage to the famous line from The Big Lebowski (1999).
