Edifício Oceania, Art Deco residential building in Barra, Salvador, Brazil.

The Oceania Building rises 12 floors with 48 apartments, providing views of Barra Lighthouse and the Bay of All Saints.

Construction of the building started in 1930 and finished in 1943, delayed by material shortages during World War II.

The architectural firm Freire & Sodré designed this structure combining Art Deco, modernist, and cubist architectural elements in its composition.

The building contains five elevators and apartments ranging from three to four bedrooms, with monthly maintenance costs supported by telecom antenna rentals.

The structure exceeded height regulations during construction, leading to lower building standards along Oceanic Avenue, making it stand out in the area.
