Birth Date 1908-07-27 Birthplace Ílhavo Death Date 1975-06-26 Training Institution Ghent University Occupation Civil Engineer Entrepreneur Biographical Text Ângelo Ramalheira was born on July 27, 1908, in Ílhavo. Son of João Ramalheira, he studied until the high school in Aveiro, Viana do Castelo and Lisbon. In the capital, he studied at the Colégio Francês and showed great skills in Mathematics. From there he went to Belgium, where, at the University of Ghent, he graduated in Civil Engineering with a specialization in reinforced concrete. Bringing technical knowledge from abroad, having been a student of Gustave Magnel, expert in reinforced concrete and pre-stressed construction techniques, engineer Ângelo Ramalheira was one of the main responsible for raising awareness of the engineer figure and his importance in collaborating with the purpose of creating large spaces with large span roofs, the building of terraces that characterized the pure cubic volumes that urban modernity at the time demanded. Returning to Portugal, after graduation, he began to work in offices of competence, moving the attention of those around him by the exceptional practical sense revealed in solving problems. Construction began to seduce him and he was already a building engineer responsible for hard calculations, such as large yield blocks, multi-storey garages, and concert halls. One of his first works in Portugal was precisely the mythical headquarters of the newspaper “O Diário de Notícias”, on Avenida da Liberdade, in Lisbon. In this same work he deepened a friendship that would prove lasting with the architect Porfírio Pardal Monteiro, author of the building project. He left an extensive work portefolio, from the Instituto Português de Oncologia and Hospital de São João, true standards of civil construction, to the boldest constructions, such as the Companhia Industrial de Portugal e das Colónias, where sliding cellular molds were used, until speed disconcerting with the construction of the new Sports Pavillion of the Palácio de Cristal in Porto. Other important works of him, authentic marks of 20th century architecture and engineering, are the Ritz Hotel in Lisbon, the Atlantic Hotel in Cascais, the Cinearte and Monumental Theater in Lisbon, and the Cine-Avenida Theater in Aveiro. He was also a pioneer in the use of prestressed in Portugal, used for the first time in a structure of the Companhia Portuguesa de Siderurgia, in Leça do Balio. In 1950, the Portuguese Government, at the invitation of the European Organization for Economic Cooperation (OECE), asked him to represent the country in the centenary of the United States Association of Civil Engineers. He wrote several scientific articles, namely about his works, such as “Cinearte, o novo cinema” in Revista Técnica. Angelo Ramalheira died on June 26, 1975. Bibliography FONSECA, N. (2007).

Birth Date 1897-02-16 Birthplace Sintra Death Date 1957-12-16 Training Institution Escola de Belas-Artes de Lisboa Occupation Architect Teacher Biographical Text Porfirio Pardal Monteiro was born in Pêro Pinheiro, on February 16, 1897. Son of Pedro Manuel Pardal Monteiro and Mariana Gertrudes, his masons ancestors are essential to understand the solidity of his works. Choosing not to follow the family business, leaving it to his brothers, in 1910 he entered the Escola de Belas Artes, in Lisboa. Attending first the general bachelor, he then initiated, in 1912, the bachelor’s in architecture. He was a colleague of Luís Cristino da Silva and Cottinelli Telmo. In the years at Belas Artes he also practiced in the Ventura Terra Atlier, a great influence in his formation. With him, he began to share a rational and functional way of designing. At the end of the bachelor, in 1919, Porfirio Pardal Monteiro continued to work with the modernist architect. In the same year he married Maria Luísa Vasques Kopke Correia Pinto. His early works, in the 1920s, are marked by the architectonic eclecticism distinctly defined in his formation. He projected the buildings of the Caixa Geral de Depósitos agencies, in Lisboa (1921), Setúbal (1924) and Porto (1923-1928), the building no. 49 in República Avenue (1920-1923), the Adventist Temple (1923-1924), the Instituto Superior Técnico (1927-1935), here inaugurating his intervention in Public Works and an important friendship with the Engineer Duarte Pacheco, a house on 5 de Outubro Avenue (1926) and the Cais do Sodré Railway Station (1925-1928),influenced by Arts Decó. Common to these works is undoubtedly the search for modernity, throughout the use of materials such as steel, concrete and glass. In the 1930s, his mark was visible in the Ford Lusitana (1930-1932), the Instituto Nacional de Estatística (1931), the Olivais Seminary (1932), the Church of Nossa Senhora de Fátima (1934-1938), the sea ports of Alcântara and Rocha do Conde de Óbidos (1934-1945) and in the headquarters of the Diário de Notícias journal (1936-1940). These works are the reflection of the modernism that, in Pardal Monteiro, reached the peak in this decade. After an interregnum in the 1940s, Porfirio Pardal Monteiro returned in the 1950s with the projects of the Ritz Hotel (1952-1959), the Cidade Universitária (1952-1967) and the National Laboratory of Civil Engineering (1949-1952), inserted in what became known as the International Modern Movement. His last work would be one of the most important, the National Library of Portugal (1964-1969). Outside of architectural scope, Porfirio Pardal Monteiro also accumulated positions in the Superior Council of Public Works, the Superior Council of Fine Arts, the National Board of Education and the National Academy of Fine Arts. He was also President of the National Society of Architects between 1936 and 1944. He has awarded with several prizes, including five Valmor awards, an honorable mention Valmor and a Municipal Prize. He also held a position as a professor in Civil Architecture at Instituto Superior Técnico, where he was later appointed Full Professor in 1944, and at the Lisbon School of Belas Artes in 1933, where he would teach for only two years of his own free will. His professional career was marked by his projective and educational activity, but also by the defence of the Architect role. In 1956 he suffered the first of at least two strokes. Unable to work and plunged into depression, he ended his life on December 16, 1957. Bibliography PACHECO, A. (1997). O espírito clássico de um arquitecto moderno.

Birth Date 1909-02-12 Birthplace Lisboa Death Date 1980-03-24 Occupation Architect Training Institution Escola de Belas Artes de Lisboa Biographical Text Raúl Rodrigues Lima was born on February 12, 1909, in Lisbon. In contact with the master José Luís Monteiro, he graduated architecture from the Escola de Belas Artes, in Lisboa. After graduation, he began his internship at the Porfírio Pardal Monteiro Atelier. He began the contact with the first modernism that was then spreading in the Portuguese architecture. With Pardal Monteiro he collaborated in the projects of the Instituto Superior Técnico and of the Igreja de Nossa Senhora de Fátima, also revealing a modernism very connected to the decorative arts, but increasingly disconnected from the past. In 1938, Rodrigues Lima was invited to elaborate a project for a cinema to build in Vasco da Gama Street, in front of Largo de Santos, the Cinearte. Thus, the cinemas would be one of the spaces on which he would intervene the most. He was in charge of the Império cinema, in Lagos (1943-1946), the Avenida cinema, in Aveiro (1945-1949), the Monumental cinema, in Lisbon (1944-1951), the Ruacaná cinema, in Angola (1944-1951), the Micaelense cinema, in Ponta Delgada (1947-1951), the Cineteatro de Estarreja, in Estarreja (1947-1951), the Covilhanense cinema, in Covilhã (1940s, 1950s) and the Messias theater in Mealhada (1950s). It’s already in the 1960s that Rodrigues Lima, in an initial partnership with the architect Antero Ferreira, designs a new cinema for the neighborhood of Campo de Ourique in Lisbon. Coming to replace the old 1930s Europa cinema, by the architect Raul Martins, the new Europa constitutes one of the last large rooms built exclusively for cinema. Another favourite area of Rodrigues Lima was the court rooms, having designed the Palácio de Justiça of Porto in 1961, the Palácio de Justiça of Aveiro in 1962, the Palácio de Justiça of Póvoa de Varzim, in 1965, among others, in Vila Real, Beja, Mangualde and Figueira da Foz. Finally, the last of spaces where Rodrigues Lima’s mark is visible is in prisons. He was responsible for the prisons of Pinheiro da Cruz, Alcoentre, Vila da Feira, Caxias and Soure. He designed other projects, namely for the Portuguese World Exhibition in 1940. He designed the fishing district in Ericeira and a building on Avenida Sidónio Pais, which earned him the Valmor Prize in 1943. Raúl Rodrigues Lima died in Lisbon, on March 3, 1980.

Son of the construction master Guilherme Faria da Costa and Maria de Jesus, he married Cristina Maria da Silva Faria da Costa, with whom she had two children, Francisco and José Faria da Costa. He attended the Afonso Domingues School, where he took a carpentry and civil construction course, and the Escola de Belas Artes, in Lisbon, where he attended a degree in architecture, that never finished. From there, he left for France to study at the Institut d'Urbanisme de l'Université de Paris (IUUP), together with Francisco Keil do Amaral. It was in Paris that he developed an aptitude for urbanism, having been a disciple, among others, of Henri Prost (architect-planner), Jacques Greber (landscape architect) and Donat-Alfred Agache (architect). The urbanist degree was assigned to him on June 19, 1937, with the thesis of an urban plan to the city of Figueira da Foz. On his return to Portugal in 1938, he was invited to join the technical services of the Lisbon City Hall for the preparation of urbanization studies and subsequent implementation. He later became part of the General Directorate of Urbanization and Works Services, working as a first-class urban architect. He oversaw the general plans for urbanization, among others, of Areeiro, Ajuda hillside (Restelo neighbourhood) and the south area of Alferes Malheiro Avenue (Alvalade), between 1938 and 1940. In 1945 he started teaching Urbanism in the Belas Artes School of Lisbon, resigning in 1948. In 1953 he was responsible for the urbanization studies of the south area of the Road of Benfica and in 1956 for the remodelling of the Baixa Lisboeta. In 1957 elaborates another urbanization plan, this time for Eduardo VII Park. However, its action spread geographically throughout the country, not only to the city of Lisbon, having made urbanization plans of Portalegre, between 1939 and 1942, Amadora, between 1944 and 1947, Costa da Caparica, in 1947, and Funchal between 1958 and 1959. With an extensive legacy, João Guilherme Faria da Costa was one of the first Portuguese urban planners. He died in 1971, in Lisbon. Bibliography MARQUES, B. (2015).

He was the son of the engineer João Emílio Segurado. He entered the Pedro Nunes Highschool in Lisbon, in 1913. In 1918 he entered the Escola de Belas Artes, in Lisbon, beginning with a preparatory course and then a degree in architecture, which ended in 1924. He was a disciple of José Luís Monteiro, Raúl Lino and Tertuliano de Lacerda Marques, having even worked in the studio of this last one. He began his professional career by being involved in the construction of Caixa Geral de Depósitos, alongside Porfírio Pardal Monteiro. Between 1929 and 1931 he designed with Carlos Ramos and Adelino Nunes the Júlio Henriques Highschool, in Coimbra. He made an interregnum in his professional action to know Europe and the international architecture. In this context, he was present at the International Colonial Exposition in Paris, in 1931. Upon returning to Portugal, between 1932 and 1941 he designed two buildings that would stand out, especially since they marked the introduction of modernism in Portuguese architecture, the D. Filipa de Lencastre Highschool and the Casa da Moeda building, in collaboration with António Varela. A more conservative period followed, preserving an historical atmosphere to the portuguese architecture, visible, for example, in the Santa Doroteia Private School, designed between 1935 and 1957, and at the Santa Luzia Hotel, between 1947 and 1956. The 1950s and 1960 marked his return to the school of modernism. This period was, in fact, the conciliation between the two previous ones. This reality is evident in the Chapel of St. Gabriel in Torres Novas in 1951, the "Blocos Amarelos" in Lisbon between 1954 and 1963 and in collaboration with his son João Carlos Segurado, Pousada de Sagres in 1960 and the National Agronomic Station in 1963. In addition to his contributions as an architect, winning a Valmor Prize in 1947 and two decorations, Officer of the Military Order of Sant'Iago da Espada and Commander of the Military Order of Christ, Jorge Segurado was also an innovator in the research field, having worked in the area of history, art and Portuguese architecture. Thus, the 1970s and 1980s are marked by the works Francisco d'Ollanda, Mário Eloy or even Tentações de Sábio Computador. Jorge de Almeida Segurado died on November 9, 1990, in Lisbon.

He was the son of General Roberto Rodrigo Mendes. He attended the Alexandre Herculano Highschool and the Rodrigues de Freitas Highschool, both in Porto. He then went to the Faculty of Sciences of Porto University to attend the preparatory course of engineering. He joined the Technical University in 1919 and graduated in Civil Engineering in 1922. In 1923 he returned to the academic world being named 2nd Physics Assistant of the Faculty of Sciences of Porto University. The 1920s is marked by his entrance in the world of the railroads. In 1925, already as an engineer, he joined the Minho and Douro division of the Railways. Two years later, in 1927, he went to the Companhia dos Caminhos de Ferro Portugueses. In the 1930s and 1940s he worked for the Direção Geral dos Edifícios e Monumentos Nacionais. Of the main projects that he directed, it stands out the Casa da Moeda (Currency House) directed between 1933 and 1938, but also a considerable amount of new buildings for post offices, telegraphs and telephones. In 1938 he was promoted to Undersecretary of State for Public Works and Communications, a position he held until 1944.

Birth Date 1879-11-21 Birthplace Lisboa Death Date 1974-07-13 Training Institution Technical Institute of Hannover (Technische Hochschule) Occupation Architect Biographical Text Raúl Lino da Silva was born on November 21, 1879, son of José Lino da Silva, a construction materials seller. He grew up between Lisbon and São Pedro de Sintra. At the age of 11, he went with his family to England, joining a catholic school outside Windsor, the St. James Roman Catholic School. In England he contacted with landscapes, architectures and interiors from the Arts and Crafts, an artistic, catholic and medievalist chain, which was affirmed in England in the late twentieth century by names like John Ruskin and William Morris. The presence in British land between 1890 and 1893 was essential to his growth as an observer of the space and to his educational values, especially the respects for others. In 1893, at the age of 13, he went with his father to Hanover, Germany, to learn the language and take a degree in architecture. José Lino enrolled his son at the Technical Institute of Hannover (Technische Hochschule), a suggestion given not only from Joaquim Bensaúde, but also from Antero de Quental, both friends of his father. Here he continued to nourish a chain of medieval revivalism, under the umbrella of Albrecht Haupt, his master, a trend that was consequently beginning to raise nationalisms across the continent. Lino was in Germany until 1897, year that marked his return to Portugal. Raul Lino came to a country full of restlessness and agitation. The solution for the recent trained architect was to get to know his country better, taking a trip around the country and registering the different cultures and local realities. Between 1898 and 1900 this was the occupation of Lino. The first year of the new century marks the beginning of an intellectual dispute between him and the architect Ventura Terra, between Portuguese traditionalism and French cosmopolitanism. Both competed in an open competition for the projection of the Portuguese pavilion for the Paris International Exhibition of the same year, with Ventura Terra winning the opportunity. However, his mark would be visible throughout the hole Portuguese territory. He designed a set of houses in Estoril between 1901 and 1906, the Manor of Patudos in 1904, the House of Cipreste in Sintra in 1912, the Tivoli Cinema in Lisbon in 1925, a villa on Rua Castilho that earned him the Valmor Prize in 1930, and the pavilion of Brazil in the Portuguese World Exhibition of 1940. It is also worth mentioning his works of restoration, especially in Palaces such as Sintra and Queluz. He also held important positions, in 1932 he became a founding member of the Academia de Bela Artes, whose presidency took over in 1967. He was also director of the National Monuments in 1949. In addition to the Valmor prize he received other decorations such as Commander of the Military Order of Christ, on March 4, 1941. Raul Lino also has a large collection of published works, such as A Nossa Casa, from 1918, Casa Portuguesa, from 1929, Casas Portuguesas, from 1933, Quatro palavras sobre Urbanizações, from 1945, Quatro palavras sobre Arquitectura e Música e sobre alguns elementos morfológicos da Arquitectura nas Artes Estáticas, from 1962. His existence crossed the most important moments of the whole XX century in Portugal. He lived in two centuries, having reached the age of majority in 1900. At about thirty years he witnessed the implantation of the Portuguese First Republic. From the age of 40, he accompanied the Estado Novo dictatorship, in which he was comfortably inserted, being on several occasions in the service of Salazar’s regime, from his formation as Military Dictatorship, in 1926, until the acclaimed revolution that would put an end to decades of autarchy, the Revolução dos Cravos, in 1974. He died in Lisbon, at the age of ninety-five, that same year, on July 13, 1974. Bibliography Mascaro, L. and Bortolucci, M. and Lourenço, J. (2009).

Birth Date 1869-10-18 Birthplace Porto Death Date 1947-06-06 Occupation Architect Teacher Training Institution Academia Portuense de Belas Artes (Escola de Belas Artes do Porto) École Nationale et Spéciale des Beaux-Arts Biographical Text José Marques da Silva was born in Porto on October 18, 1869. On the paternal side of his family he descended from agricultural workers, except for his father Bernardo Marques da Silva, who became a bricklayer and opened a materials workshop. His mother Maria Rosa Marques had in total ten children, being José Marques da Silva the oldest. He attended primary school and highschool at Ordem da Trindade School until 1851. Having worked in his father's materials workshop, he quickly gained aptitude and taste for the area, digging ground to enter the Portuense Academy of Belas Artes, where he entered in 1882. He was a student of António Geraldes da Silva Sardinha, João Marques de Oliveira and António Soares dos Reis. In 1889 he went to Paris to further his knowledge and studies, joining the École Nationale et Spéciale des Beaux-Arts in 1890. During his stay in the French capital he worked in the studio of Victor Laloux, author of Gare d'Orsay, and became friends with Teixeira Lopes, Ventura Terra, Veloso Salgado and António Nobre. He would return to Portugal in 1896, the same year he finished his degree in architecture. His activity grew quickly, having participated in both the Paris Universal Exhibition of 1900 and the Rio de Janeiro Exhibition of 1908. His designs were able to spread his mark for various decades and different cities. In the city of Porto and Braga, he designed the S. Bento Station in 1896, the working-class neighborhood "O Comércio do Porto" between 1899 and 1905, the Monument to the Heroes of the Peninsular War in 1909, the National Theater of S. João in 1910, the Four Seasons Building in 1905, the Alexandre Herculano high school in 1914, the Warehouses Nascimento in 1914, the House of Irmandade da Lapa between 1910 and 1915, the Rodrigues de Freitas high school in 1919, the Diário de Notícias building in Porto in 1825 and, among others, the House and Gardens of Serralves between 1925 and 1943. His brand was also felt in the city of Guimarães, having designed the Sociedade Martins Sarmento between 1903 and 1908, the Municipal Market between 1927 and 1947 and the Penha Sanctuary between 1930 and 1947. In Lisbon he participated in the conclusion of the works of the Jerónimos Monastery, in the revitalization of the São Bento Palace, the Lisbon Cathedral, and in the restoration of the Belas Artes School of Lisbon. Concerned for his activity, he traveled to Spain, England, France, Belgium and Germany in search of inspiration for his projects. In addition to being a great technician, José Marques da Silva was also important in the academic world. In 1900 he was invited to teach Design and Modeling at the Instituto Industrial e Comercial do Porto. In 1906 he was appointed professor of architecture at the Portuense Academy of Belas Artes, which was already called the Belas Artes School of Porto. Between 1913 and 1914 and later between 1918 and 1938 he was the director of this same school. He was also a professor and director of the Soares dos Reis Artistic School between 1914 and 1930. His connection to the drawing subject assured him the esteem of a generation of modern architects who, starting from the academic base sedimented by Marques da Silva, reinvented Porto’s architecture. Marques da Silva was, at last, involved in the Conselho Superior da Sociedade de Belas-Artes, being an associate almost all his life. He was the first associate of the Sociedade de Arquitetos do Norte. He was a collaborator in the Yearbook of the Sociedade Portuguesa de Arquitetos. He was also architect of the Porto City Hall, from 1904 to 1906. In the field of decorations, he was awarded, in 1908, the Official Degree of the Ordem de S.
