The map
About this Rio Tinto map poster
Rio Tinto lies in the Mamanguape valley in the state of Paraíba, in northeastern Brazil, a short distance inland from the Atlantic coast. The town was founded in the early twentieth century by the Lundgren family as the site of a large textile mill, and its layout still reflects that origin.
Workers' houses were built in long, regular rows near the factory, with streets arranged around the industrial complex. After the mill declined the town kept its unusual form, and its company-town architecture is now recognised as part of Paraíba's industrial heritage. Lush vegetation and the river valley surround the settlement.
A Rio Tinto map poster shows planned streets that are unusually orderly for the region. Straight rows of houses follow the valley floor, and the river and the green slopes enclose the town. It shows how industry once shaped whole communities in northeastern Brazil.

Mill district
The large footprint of the former textile works sits at the heart of the town. The streets were once organised around it.
Valley setting
The river valley and its green slopes surround the town, so the planned streets appear as a clear island in open countryside.
