  • Eduardo Souto de Moura was born in Porto, Portugal in 1952. His father was a doctor (ophthalmologist) and his mother was a home maker.

    Following his early years at the Italian School, Souto de Moura enrolled in the School of Fine Arts in Porto, where he began as an art student, studying sculpture, but eventually achieving his degree in architecture. He credits a meeting with Donald Judd in Zurich for the switch from art to architecture. While still a student, he worked for architect No Dinis and then lvaro Siza, the latter for five years. While studying and working with his professor of urbanism, Architect Fernandes de S, he received his first commission, a market project in Braga which has since been demolished because of changing business patterns.

    After two years of military service he won the competition for the Cultural Centre in Porto, the beginning of his career as an independent architect.

    He is frequently invited as a guest professor to Lausanne and Zurich in Switzerland as well as Harvard in the United States. These guest lectures at universities and seminars over the years have afforded him the opportunity to meet many colleagues in the field, among them Jacques Herzog and Aldo Rossi.

    Along with his architecture practice, Souto de Moura is a professor at the University of Oporto, and is a visiting professor at Geneva, Paris-Belleville, Harvard, Dublin and the ETH Zurich and Lausanne.

    Often described as a neo-Miesian, but one who constantly strives for originality, Souto de Moura has achieved much praise for his exquisite use of materials - granite, wood, marble, brick, steel, concrete - as well as his unexpected use of colour. Souto de Moura is clear on his view of the use of materials, saying, I avoid using endangered or protected species. I think we should use wood in moderation and replant our forests as we use the wood. We have to use wood because it is one of the finest materials available.

    About Eduardo Souto de Moura

    In an interview with Croquis, he explained, I find Mies increasingly fascinating... There is a way of reading him which is just to regard him as a minimalist. But he always oscillated between classicism and neoplasticism... You only have to remember the last construction of his life, the IBM building, with that powerful travertine base that he drilled through to produce a gigantic door. Then on the other hand, he arrived in Barcelona and did two pavilions, didnt he? One was abstract and neo plastic and the other one was classical, symmetrical with closed corners... He was experimenting. He was already so modern that he was post.

    Souto de Moura acknowledges the Miesian influence, speaking of h is Burgo Tower, but refers people to something written by Italian journalist and critic, Francesco Dal Co, its better not to be original but good, rather than wanting to be very original and bad.

    At a ser ies of forums cal led the Holcim Forum on sustainable architecture, Souto de Moura stated, For me, architecture is a global issue. There is no ecological architecture, no intelligent architecture, no sustainable architecture - there is only good architecture. There are always problems we must not neglect; for example, energy, resources, costs, social aspects - one must always pay attention to all these.

    "The castle was big, though, wasn't it? And the angel was big, very big, even when right next to you?" Rilke, Duno Elegies

    Work was not allowed to interfere with the garden. Omitting was more important than proposing, filing and shaving was more important than designing, and simplicity more important than composition. The building is structured primarily by a concrete wall, and by another stone wall, adjusted and somewhat out of phase at the point of the doorway. A flat copper-plated roof rests on these walls. Work would begin two metres from the line of trees that we did not want to affect. There would be three sculptures. Regardless of their quality, we were interested in their location, and attitude in the place that they would participate in shaping and making too. They are all essential pieces in the definition and codification of the three sectors: the Auditorium, the Exhibition Hall and the Cinema. The first sculpture will rest on the wall that comes from outside the garden and, upon entering into the auditorium, makes the interior stage or theatre. The second sculpture will be in the entrance to the exhibition hall, serving as the emblematic doorway to the Centre as well as capping off the elevation. The third will have the cinema as its backdrop, placed near the wall that separates the Cultural Centre from the nine-storey-high tower...

    This project aims to adapt, or rather, to make use of the stones available to build a new building. It is a new building, in which various voices and functions (some already registered, other still to be constructed) intervene; it is not a reconstruction of the building in its original form. For this project, the ruins are more important than the "Convent"; they are open and manipulable, just as the building was during its history. This attitude is not meant to express or represent an exceptional case justifying some original manifesto, but rather to abide by a rule of architecture, more or less unchanging throughout time. During the design process, lucidity was sought for between the form and the programme. Faced with two possible paths, the architect chose to reject the pure and simple consolidation of the ruin for the sake of contemplation, opting instead for the introduction of new materials, uses, forms and functions "entre les choses", as Corbusier said. The "picturesque" is a question of fate, not part of a project or programme.

    The site is located where the Avenida da Boavista breaks into discontinuous sections; it is the biggest straight-line avenue in Portugal that extends from "Casa da Msica" till the Sea in West. The solution consists in a level platform which incorporates two nearby volumes which recast in different scales. A low ribbon-like building allows for the enclosure more close to approximate the sought-after anonymity. The tower, set back from the avenue, rises up from the platform, waiting for further and future works of architecture still to come. This office complex opens a large square between the two buildings, one horizontal and the other vertical. The square is occupied by a big sculpture by the Porto architect/sculptor Nadir de Afonso. The buildings were drawn with very simple shapes, following the influences of Mies and the Chicago buildings. The main interest about the building is its faade. Its skin is composed out of a single module that wraps all the volumes. That module was studied so it could fit on two different ways creating a glass faade and an opaque faade. The building was described by the Pirtzker jury as two buildings side by side, one vertical and one horizontal with different scales, in dialogue with each other and the urban landscape. Souto de Moura commented that a twenty storey office tower is an unusual project for me. I began my career building single family houses.

    After the experience at the Baio House, I felt that it would be more natural, in Portugal, to design wooden frames. To this end, the roof has to be exposed to view, declaring itself a new object, visible as if fallen from the sky. The project set out to redesign another, earlier house, analogous in terms of site, programme and materials. One exception, one aspect that was not a redesign, is that we had to reconstruct the hillside with new retaining walls and platforms, and this cost more than the house itself. "Le coeur a des raisons..." The client, as an intelligent man, was in agreement, and during seven years the house progressively gained in autonomy, passing from the redesign to the specific design for the occupants and the site which we progressively discovered and modified.

    An aristocratic villa with a beautiful garden had been sold and was being used as a venue for wedding celebrations. The house's vegetable garden, running parallel to Porto de Leixes, was sold off as plots for development. A new road, proposed by the local authority, was to cut diagonally across the vegetable garden to leave a triangle (one plot) and a trapezium (nine plots). The project sets out to occupy the trapezium, dividing it into four small and five large plots, with swimming pools and annexes. The plots are separated by parallel walls, which support three strips of concrete which act as roofs. The spaces between the walls are courtyards, where the vegetation will grow up above the walls to merge with the neighbouring gardens and fields. I believe that the place, laid out with walls and trees, will retain its identity.

    The project for the Arrabida House has been in progress for almost four years and I have only now obtained the building permit from the local authority. At the present moment I have passed beyond the permanent crisis, the personal difficulties with the definition of the language, and the final construction project is ready to go ahead. One of the problems was the incompatibility, with regard to the client, the topography and to me, of reconciling any previous experience with this project. The simple solutions were exhausted, and quickly became simplistic. The form transformed itself into formula. A text by the writer Edgar Morin serves to explain the situation: "In the face of increasing complexity, we are more than ever in need of a thought that is capable of simplifying without mutilating. When reality resists simplification, we have to turn to complexity. Complexity is the eruption of the disorder of the aleatory and of uncertainty into reality... We all know today that the future is unpredictable, given the perpetual intervention of the new and the unexpected. And it is for that very reason that extreme complexity has a tendency to resemble a permanent crisis." (Edgar Morin, "O Jornal" 24th December, 1986)

    When designing a house, the problem is to understand the identity of both the client and the place in order to invent an "alter ego". Our capacity for repetition depends on our attitudes to the "time" and on the personality of the "place". I became interested in doors and windows, which I had felt inhibited about for 25 years. An immense horizontal sea, the Atlantic, cannot be recorded: an ocean - always different, always the same - cannot be "caught". We therefore opened up a neutral view, expanding the voids and designing with positives and negatives. The materials and colours are all different, all the same: grey. The grey tones vary gradually from outside to inside. The greys of Azulino de Cascais stone, the matt sheen of the aluminium and the sand-blasted stainless steel are all waiting for the setting sun to lift them out of their "grey" state.

    House in "Bom Jesus" II

    084

  • 085

    To meet the clients requirements we designed a black and white house with large terraces overlooking the city. The image of the Art House Project in Naoshima - Minami Dera Temple by Tadao Ando came up as an excuse for the black and also because the client was a timber industrial. Because the site was a fairly steep hill overlooking the city of Braga, we decided not to produce a large volume resting on a hilltop. The house was to be a wooden box but due to maintenance issues it will now be coated with patinaed zinc. Instead, we made the construction on five terraces with retainer walls, with a different function defined for each terrace - fruit trees on the lowest level, a swimming pool on the next, the main parts of the house on the next, bedrooms on the fourth, and on the top, we planted a forest. Those terraces drawings led us to involve the house in a heroically suspended ring. The ring will probably be painted in white. Between this ring and the house a garden embraces the vertical oak-trees. On the houses south and west sides the terraces horizontal subbase planes could be aligned with the skyline. (Porto, August 2009, Eduardo Souto de Moura)

    House in Maia II

    098

  • 099

    The house is developed on two lots whose ends have a height of seven metres. Moving forward to the middle between two volumes, the programme looks like this: the rooms on the east, and the living room as well as others on the west. Below, is a basement with a porch that serves as a garage, pool and the engine room. The house has two patios and gardens with two different geographies: to the east, the rooms, a more intimate area with a tranquil oriental garden that provides the necessary light; to the west lies a long garden with oaks on the north, falling into a pool where a window lets you see the industrial outskirts and subway passes.

    The Braganca Contemporary Art Museum consists of several parts. First, construction of a new building, with a temporary exhibitions area, 240 square metres and 8.30 metres high, is capable of receiving any exhibition that submits to the conditionings of the international legislation (light, ventilation, air conditioned, setting services, etc). Second, rehabilitation of the building, Solar Veiga Cabral, former "Banco de Portugal", that will receive the permanent exhibition on the first floor. The ground floor will function as a library, reception and restaurant, as well as other adjacent services. Third, the two buildings will be connected by a new volume, which corresponds to the proposed programme: circulation between temporary and permanent exhibitions; complementary programme to the museological activity, such as: educative service, administrative cabinet, and museology technical cabinet. After this three-volume restructuration, there are left some interstitial spaces, which will be fulfilled these ways: trucks' access ramp, for exhibitions loading and unloading, small yard to park cars, pedestrian ramp, from Emdio Navarro Street to the restaurant's esplanade, which will serve those out of the regular working hours. And, this operation obliges to the use of the pre-defined materials, in Emdio Navarro Street project, because without this, the museum wouldn't be integrated in an urban requalification operation, but would be one more insolite object.

    On the basis of a previously approved subdivision on a steep slope, the architects build three row housing typologies set on three platforms. The patio-houses in the upper part, at street level, have a single storey that opens on to the garden. The entrance is generated from a patio/garden on the south side. The three-storey houses are set at the lower level with the transition in between. The entrance and garage are set in the terrace/garden, like in Los Angeles. With the exception of the patio-houses, all the dwellings enjoy views of the park.

    In a land with a strong drop we built two platforms where two volumes are implanted. In the higher volume, in concrete, are the rooms facing east. In the lower volume, of granite, where the other is based, facing west are the rooms and the kitchen, and facing the garden a courtyard that is the garage roof. Along the lot - in the north side - another house that I have made, with the same accuracy by the same company. There are moments like these, that we still believe that we can build well. It is only a matter of taste and dedication.

    Hotelary School in Portalegre

    230

  • 231

    The building of the Hotel and Catering School defines a new street, a structural and vital element to the rehabilitation of the old area of the Robinson Factory. To south, literally "hangs" over the landscape, enjoying the natural slope. The building is intended to be a box resting on the existing embankment defining a large balcony where all main spaces of the school turn to classrooms, library, lounge, restaurant and bar. To north, this box is closed, given its frank relation with the street and sets up two bodies completely closed. The largest and most detached volume embraces all kitchens and infrastructural support to the restaurant, self-service and teaching kitchen, finished in a blue colour traditionally used in bakeries and all places where special hygiene requirements exist. This volume is also denounced by huge skylights-chimneys. At the area in front of the classrooms and corresponding to yellow ochre body are placed the offices and additional spaces of smaller areas, each opening to a small private courtyard on the console. This equipment is an element of articulation with the rest of the urban fabric, serving a good portion of the population.

    Office Building in Avenida Boavista

    240

  • 241

    The building is composed by a table parallel to the Avenue, which works as commercial stores. In the tabletop scattered boxes were placed, whose orientation is aimed at the City Park. Those boxes are disposed randomly but interconnected, and function as offices. Different from the traditional platform-like style building that I used to make, now I rethink the concept of the box-like architecture, transforming it into a composition of boxes that generate an urban faade over the avenue. Deployment of its irregularity on the table, resulting interstices, courtyards, gardens - serving each volume, each office, enables us to be "smoking", or feel the proximity of the park, right there in front.

    I was so lucky to choose this site, which increased my responsibility after the painter Paula Rgo had chosen me as projectist. The site was a woods, all surrounded by a wall, with a big empty in the middle, some former club tennis courts, which had disappeared with the Carnation Revolution. With the trees survey, especially their tops, I have developed a set of volumes with different heights, to respond to the plurality of the programme. The boxes distribution works like a mineral positive, from the negative that remains from the tree top perimeter. This "Yang" and "Yin" game between artifact and nature, helped me to decide the exterior material, red concrete, the opposite colour to the green wood, which meanwhile decreased by botanic prophylaxis. As I didn't want the building to be a neutral sum of boxes, I have established a hierarchy, introducing two big pyramids (skylights) in the entrance axis, which are the library and the caf, where it wasn't an indifferent Alcobaca's kitchen, some houses from Architect Raul Lino and some illustrations from Boull. It was my concerning that every exhibition room had always an opening to the exterior, to the garden. It is never too much to oppose the abstract and totally artificial reality of contemporary art to the daily and ruff reality that surrounds us.
