Souto de Moura

Eduardo Souto de Moura wraps up the triad that placed Porto in the circuits of global architecture by virtue of honoring vernacular tradition in combination with geometric rigor, constructive precision, and material solidity. Such a sublayer has enabled him to handle types, scales, and strategies with agility, while still stamping an unmistakable mark on his projects. Celebrating his forty-five years of work, Arquitectura Viva presents that same number of projects of his in a 344-page book, hardbound and bilingual (Spanish and English), testimony of a brilliant practice that has been both intensely local and resolutely open to the world. An in-depth article by Kenneth Frampton gives intellectual strength to the monograph, which closes with the Portuguese architect going over his trajectory in an interview conducted by Luis Fernández-Galiano.
