Eduardo Souto de Moura studied architecture at the School of Fine Arts in Oporto, Portugal, where he later became a professor. He has also been a visiting professor at Harvard, Geneva, Paris-Belleville, ETH Zurich, Lausanne, and Dublin. He has completed dozens of residences, schools, infrastructure works, and other projects in Portugal and Europe, including the Portuguese Pavilion for the 2000 Expo in Hanover, with Alvaro Siza. He has won numerous awards. Souto de Moura's sports stadium completed in 2004 is carved out of a granite hillside in Braga, Portugal, using the excavated material for aggregate in the building's concrete structure.
