His financial wealth meant that he didn't have to work. As its was common in those times, his works were divided in two artistic movements: rococo and late baroque. Archbishop D. José de Bragança (1741-1756) brought Rococo to Braga. André Soares benifited from his support, having been chosen to design the new Archbishop's Palace, where he ranged between the Johaninne style and the new rococo values. Soon after, though, he changed to a new style, as one can witness in the Santa Maria Madalena da Falperra Chapel and the Raio Palace. In another equally quick move, his architecural work taking on a new form which is part of an unadorned late baroque whilst his carving maintained its vibrant rococó characteristics, traits that remained to the end of his life.
