Birth Date 1906-04-06 Birthplace Lisboa Death Date 1971-01-19 Training Institution Escola de Belas Artes de Lisboa Occupation Architect Urbanist Teacher Biographical Text João Guilherme Faria da Costa was born on April 6, 1906, in Sintra. 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.
