What is the ‘big (IDEA)’ behind this project?
FANAWAY® is an advanced ceiling fan with a unique form and an energy efficient design. Switched off, the intrusive fan blades automatically retract and the unit transforms into a slim, modern light pendant. Turning the fan on creates a centrifugal force that deploys the blades to circulate air within a room. Direction of the air movement is controllable, so it can be used to great effect on hot and cold days.
