He taught for many years in the Superior Technical School of Architecture of Madrid. He directed construction of the Madrid University City, much of which was damaged during the Spanish Civil War (1936–39). He designed many houses, office buildings, monuments and churches. The Arco de la Victoria (1956) celebrates the victory of the Nationalist forces led by General Francisco Franco over the Republicans. LifeModesto López Otero was born in Valladolid on 24 February 1885. His parents were Juan López Nuñez, from Coreos, Valladolid and Amalia Otero from El Saler, Lugo. He attended the Institute of Education of the Piarists of Valladolid for his secondary education, then took a preparatory course for Agricultural Engineers in Madrid and entered the School of Architecture in 1902. In 1910 he submitted a plan for a proposed concert hall for orchestra and choral performances for his final examination, and passed with high marks. He began to practice architecture with his fellow-student José Yárnoz Larrosa. He won a prize at the first Salón de Arquitectura of the Society of Friends of Art.

At the Royal Academy he was always active in defense of the Spanish artistic heritage.{{sfn|Sánchez de Lerín García-Ovies|2000|p=13}} Also in 1923 López Otero was chosen to direct the Madrid University City (Ciudad Universitaria de Madrid) project.{{sfn|Sánchez de Lerín García-Ovies|2000|p=12}} He formed a diverse team of young architects to design the various buildings for the Madrid University City.{{sfn|Antuña Bernardo|2003|p=123}} After studying several famous universities in Europe, López Otero led a team to North America in November 1927 where they visited Yale, Harvard, M.I.T. and universities in Montreal, Toronto, Michigan, Rochester, Washington, Baltimore, Princeton, and New York City.{{sfn|Cooke|2007|p=48}} The University City was planned in 1927–28. A final ideal perspective was created in December 1928. The campus covered {{convert|320|ha}} on a site in the western margin of Madrid, on a plan that drew much from American models.{{sfn|Cooke|2007|p=49}} The building designs were influenced by European avant-garde architecture of the period, and the overall layout kept the campus closely integrated with the city of Madrid. Construction began in 1929.{{sfn|Cooke|2007|p=50}} Construction continued after the Second Spanish Republic was initiated in 1931, but halted with the outbreak of the Spanish Civil War (1936–39). Most of the buildings were partially destroyed by bombs during the Civil War.{{sfn|Cooke|2007|p=52}} In 1932 López Oter was appointed to the Academy of History, where he lectured on modern technology in the conservation of buildings. As an architect he designed a wide variety of buildings, including private homes, vacation homes, office buildings, monuments and churches.{{sfn|Sánchez de Lerín García-Ovies|2000|p=13}} In 1934 Manuel Sánchez Arcas and the engineer Eduardo Torroja founded the Instituto Técnico de la Construcción y Edificación (ITCE, Technical Institute of Construction and Building).{{sfn|Manuel Sánchez Arcas – epdlp}} Other founding members were López Otero and the engineers José María Aguirre Gonzalo (1897–1988) and Alfonso Peña Boeuf (1888–1966). The ITCE was a non-profit organization dedicated to developing and applying technical innovations in engineering civil structures.{{sfn|Camprubí|2014|p=17}} The white Arco de la Victoria was built in Madrid in 1956 to commemorate the Nationalist victory in the Civil War. The {{convert|39|m}} arch was designed by Pascual Bravo and Lopez Otero.{{sfn|Atherton|Warne|2014|p=110}} López Otero died at his home in Madrid on 23 December 1962 a few days after an operation for kidney disease.
