Mrny Nu-Wood Jobs rt San Diego

Ameri,ca's Exposition at San Diego, California, is an exhibit of Nu-Wood interior finish units as well. Ovqr 100,000 square feet of these units help to make exhibits, auditoriums, restaurants and villages more attractive.

Just as in Chicago's Century of Progress in 1933 and 1934, Nu-Wood's striking texture and interesting variegated colors caused it to be selected for wall and ceiling treatment in a large number of exhibition buildings. Nu-Wood Plank has been used most frequently because of its easy ability to fit into the plans for Spanish design, which is the architectural basis of the San Diego Exhibition. Easily the show place of the Exhibit, the "Cafe of the World" is also the show place for Nu-Wood products. Nu-Wood Plank has been applied in walls and ceilings of its main dining room, its bar rooms and ,casino. On the side walls of the central bar room, Nu-Wood Plank has been applied in 45 degree angle matched panels on the upper sidewalls. The entire application has provided attractive interior finish as well as insulating value and acoustical correction.

Other outstanding examples of Nu-Wood interior finish application at the San Diego Fair are the auditorium in the "House of Hospitality", the exhibit of the American Telephone and Telegraph Company, in the Hall of Science, the Fair Administration offi,ce and the office of the Department of Admissions.

Nu-Wood units are manufactured by Wood Conversion Company, St. Paul, Minnesota, a Weyerhaeuser unit. They are available in Tile, Plank and Wainscot units, as well as in Board form. This ,company also manufactures BalsamWool, flexible house insulation. The company,s products are marketed through retail lumber dealers exclusively.
