According to Kenneth Frampton, who wrote the foreword in this book, Eduardo Souto Moura displays “a certain sensual propensity for Platonic form which we may associate with the Mediterranean and with the Arab world.” The respected Portuguese architect’s portfolio is as diverse as it is expansive, a fact that this monograph, compiled by architectural photographer Juan Rodríguez, very much emphasises.

Besides numerous photographs of the architect and his projects taken by Rodríguez, the book includes highly individual perspectives through commentary by a number of architects and critics, among them, Emilio Tuñon, Luis Fernández-Galiano, David Cohn and Vasa Perovic.
