Glass House, Designed by Alan Olin 1979, with improvements by Tom Payton, 1995, and Jaqueline Norman, 1998.

This is a pretty cool alternative for student housing.  I would have definately chosen to live in the dorms if this was an option.  "A writer for the New York Times called the student-designed and built structures at the Frank Lloyd Wright School of Architecture perhaps "the hippest dormitory in the world." The "shelters," as they are called, dot the natural landscape surrounding the campuses, and are offered to students as options for living while attending school."
