描述
This publication is part of the collection “(:) two points”. A series dedicated to showing unique works of contemporary architecture from the point of view of construction.
After the previous publication dedicated to the Ibêre Camargo Museum, the author Álvaro Siza recommended dedicating the following issue to the Metro project carried out by Souto de Moura for the city of Oporto.
Siza justified his choice because according to him, the entire Oporto Metro project had been resolved with only seven basic details.
After analyzing the project, the Porto Metro project has undoubtedly been resolved with more than seven basic details, but it is true that there is a great effort throughout the project to achieve a great systematization and even a certain concern to achieve repeatable solutions. and even industrialized. This book shows a large part of them in an edition where the scale of presentation of the plans is fundamental to be able to show the complexity of the design of Souto de Moura.
