This ICON magazine article explores a forgotten architectural gem in Funchal, Madeira — a hotel and casino complex designed by Oscar Niemeyer in 1966 and featuring interiors by renowned Portuguese designer Daciano da Costa. Commissioned by the Barreto family, the project blends Niemeyer's bold modernism with Daciano's elegant and functional interior design. Despite its significance, the building remains largely ignored in Portugal, highlighting a broader cultural neglect of national contributions to modern architecture and design.
