Birth Date 1928-12-31 Birthplace Sintra Death Date 2012-11-17 Occupation Architect Teacher Biographical Text António Pardal Monteiro was born on December 31, 1928, in Pêro-Pinheiro, Sintra. Son of Basilio Pardal Monteiro, an industrialist of marbles and stonework and with whom had direct contact with the construction industry, and Adelina Baptista Pardal Monteiro. He was a well-known Portuguese architect, with a work of excellence, especially in the city of Lisbon. After high school at Liceu Camões, he joined the Escola de Belas Artes in the capital to study architecture, which he ended in 1950. He became known for completing and continuing the work of his uncle, Porfírio Pardal Monteiro, with whom he began working immediately after graduation, and who, after 1957, left his nephew the responsibility to continue his work. His most well-known works include interventions at the Cidade Universitária de Lisboa, namely the Reitoria, the Faculdade de Letras and the Faculdade de Direito. Another project that is automatically associated with him is the Biblioteca Nacional, which saw for almost 50 years growing and renovating, having participated in the changes and adjustments introduced to the original project, as well as supporting the execution of practically all the work until its conclusion in 1969. It was at his suggestion that Daciano da Costa was entrusted with the interior arrangements of the General Reading Room, the director's premises and the amphitheater, the most emblematic spaces of the building. He was also in charge of the expansion and remodeling work of the Deposit Tower. His portfolio includes many other projects, namely the Edifcio Arantes and Oliveira Building of the Laboratório Nacional de Engenharia Civil, the Instituto Nacional Dr. Ricardo Jorge, the Escola Nacional de Saúde Pública, the remodeling and expansion of the Instituto Superior Técnico, specifically the two towers of the complex. Among other interventions, António Pardal Monteiro was also involved in the stone conversion of the Padrão dos Descobrimentos between 1958 and 1960. Teaching was another great passion of the architect, professor at the Faculdade de Arquitetura de Lisboa from 1976 to 1999, marking several generations of future professionals. António Pardal Monteiro received the title of Knight of the Order of Santiago da Espada, attributed for his contribution in the construction of the central buildings of the Cidade Universitária de Lisboa. He was also a member of the Associação dos Arquitetos Portugueses, the Sociedade Portuguesa de Acústica and the Comissão Nacional Portuguesa de Iluminação. He died on 17 November 2012, in Lisbon, at the age of 84 from a prolonged illness. Bibliography PASCOAL, A. (2010).
