HANGING OUT A SHINGLE



One of the more creative jobs I’ve taken on was the designing of this mall kiosk. The purpose of the kiosk was to hang Consolidated’s “shingle” in a shopping mall near Houston, Texas where by acquisition they had recently acquired new customers. The investment was considerable. This kiosk was designed to house two 42” flat screen TVs, a professional-grade DVD player and two sets of backlit posters. This was bound to generate a good deal of heat. To solve this problem, I created a convection cooling system by incorporating vents along the bottom footing and two ultra-quiet ventilation fans to blow the hot air out through the top. After a flawless two-year stint in Texas, the unit was shipped back to Illinois where it now resides with new messaging in the window of Consolidated’s corporate headquarters.
