Kelvinator. William Queale and partners established the Mechanical Products Company in Adelaide in late 1932. Queale was the Managing Director of the company. They located their head office and factory on Anzac Highway at Keswick. The company secured the rights to make under license the American Kelvinator company’s domestic and commercial refrigerators from September 1933. Their workforce expanded rapidly from then onwards and they expected to have around 290 employees within a year. In the 1930s it was shops that mostly wanted a refrigeration cabinet for the sale of ice creams and hotels for the icy cold beers. By 1939 Kelvinator Australia employed over 400 people. Around 90% of the company’s products were sold interstate. Before it closed it had a workforce of around 2,500 people. Kelvinator was sold to Email in 1980 and the Anzac Highway buildings sold in 1984. William Queale made frequent visits to America and the stream lined Kelvinator Office building on Anzac Highway was probably built in the Art Deco style in the late 1930s. Its rounded corner entrance, clock, steel framed windows and neon Kelvinator sign are iconic. This building was probably designed in America by Kelvinator America as William Queale visited there at least once a year.
I was cleaning out my closet and came across my first generation iPod. Looking through my old playlists gave me the idea to start a poster series about my favorite albums.
August and Everything After, by Counting Crows, is one of my favorite CDs ever, and I listened to it a ton in my early teens. I wanted to design an album cover with type that includes the song list as well as the way I was feeling at the time.
The concept is based on a combination of memories from this time. The center circle is representative of the moon, and the bokeh to the left conjure memories of headlights in the rain at night. Even the title of the album holds meaning, because I began to listen to it during the fall. All of my memories from this time remind me of this album and vice versa - so this had to be the first in the series.
I've started working on my next piece and will be posting it soon! :)
