António Maria Braga

Portuguese architect

António Maria Braga is a Portuguese architect, who specializes in traditional Portuguese architecture.[1] Together with the architect Alberto Castro Nunes, he was the 8th winner of the Rafael Manzano Prize for New Traditional Architecture, awarded in 2019.[2]

Education

António Braga graduated in Architecture in 1980 from the Escola Superior de Belas-Artes of Lisbon (ESBAL), today the Faculty of Architecture of the University of Lisbon, which at the time offered an exclusively Modernist curriculum. António Braga thus developed his mastery of traditional architecture outside his academic years.[3]
