EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the world of 1930s department store design with this photograph showcasing a row of sleek and modern Lavatories, crafted from Plymax standard type C lavatories and Venesta plywood type A flush doors. The year is 1936, and this innovative combination of materials was revolutionizing the way public facilities were built. Plymax, a trademarked name for high-quality plywood, was gaining popularity for its strength, rigidity, and light weight. The use of Plymax plywood in these lavatories added a modern and contemporary feel to the space, while also ensuring durability and ease of maintenance. Venesta, a limited company known for its superior plywood boards, provided the flush doors for these facilities. The smooth, uniform surface of the Venesta plywood doors added a touch of elegance and sophistication to the lavatories, making them a standout feature of the department store. Behind the scenes, the architects of the day, such as Beaumont and Affleck, were embracing the possibilities of these new materials. The diagram and measurements in the background of the photograph provide a glimpse into the meticulous planning and precision that went into the design and construction of these facilities. The use of plywood in department store lavatories was a game-changer in the industry during the 1930s. This photograph is a testament to the enduring appeal of modern materials and design, and a reminder of the innovation and progress that characterized the era.
