Castelinho do Flamengo, Cultural center in Flamengo District, Brazil.
The three-story mansion combines Italian Renaissance, Art Nouveau, Neo-Baroque, Rococo, and French Neo-Gothic architectural elements with decorative tiles and stained glass windows.
Italian architect Gino Coppedè designed the building in 1916 for Portuguese entrepreneur Joaquim Silva Cardoso, while Brazilian architect Francisco dos Santos completed construction in 1918.
The Castelinho do Flamengo houses the Oduvaldo Vianna Filho Cultural Center, offering theater workshops, art exhibitions, and a media library with 1,500 titles.
The cultural center features fourteen individual video cabins, cable TV access, and the Lumière auditorium that accommodates forty people for events.
The entrance gate displays an Art Nouveau butterfly design in wrought iron, marking the structure as one of the last remaining mansions from the original Beira-Mar Avenue.
