For those exhibitors who are looking for ideas that are different, here ore three<br />

worth examining. Directly below is the circular foyer of the Odeon Theatre in<br />

Ottawa, Canada, which illustrates how a beautifully patterned terrazzo floor<br />

can create a smart decor for a large public area. Easy to clean, too. At the<br />

right is a Pennsylvania Dutch design of inlaid Formica used as a decorative wall<br />

for a water fountain. It is in the King Theatre, Lancaster, Pa. Formica is a material<br />

which can be worked out in many colors and patterns for theatre decoration<br />

purposes.<br />

CHINESE<br />

PAGODA MOTIF<br />

The Music Hall in Seattle is a lush house,<br />

with good deal of ornament in its decorative<br />

scheme. Hence, when a new refreshment<br />

service area was developed, it<br />

naturally was required that the styling<br />

be kept in the general atmosphere of the<br />

theatre. The planners selected this modified<br />

Chinese Pagoda pattern. The open<br />

framework was all that was required to<br />

create the effect. The counters and display<br />

cases are in the accepted refreshment<br />

service style, but the extra imagination<br />

which went into the "canopy" gives<br />

it that additional touch of class.<br />
