A presente dissertação centra-se no Arquitecto Francisco Conceição Silva, na sua obra, e mais especificamente, no Hotel do Mar, em Sesimbra. O objectivo do trabalho centra-se assim, na análise aprofundada sobre o arquitecto: as suas motivações, a sua formação enquanto artista e os seus edifícios construídos, dentro de um espectro arquitectónico. Numa primeira fase, procede-se ao estabelecimento de uma cronologia, na tentativa de situar o arquitecto no espaço e no tempo, tendo em atenção vários parâmetros, como a situação da Humanidade, a situação da Arquitectura numa classe mais global primeiro, mudando depois de escala para o território nacional, que é de facto, onde o interveniente actua. Surge em seguida uma biografia do arquitecto Conceição Silva, que pretende dar a entender a sua formação, a sua evolução enquanto Homem e enquanto arquitecto, a sua capacidade de lidar com as várias artes e conjugá-las livre e harmoniosamente com a “sua” arquitectura, entre outras. Pretende-se perceber qual a postura arquitectónica, as suas origens, o tipo de influências do autor e quais as suas intenções práticas no que respeita à organização do Hotel do Mar. O desafio lançado pelo proprietário do Hotel do Mar, é o ponto de charneira para o que viria a seguir, e o combustível necessário para fazer descolar o grande atelier, que durante alguns anos é o maior do nosso país. No fim das parcerias, lutas políticas, cargos administrativos, muita arquitectura e mobiliário, de ser o Homem por trás da máquina, do ataque violento à sua pessoa, surge o exílio para o Brasil, onde vai terminar a sua vida aos 60 anos.
