The conceptual 'Be-1 Fan' has been designed as a solution for the desktop that will provide heat relief in a targeted manner to eliminate the need for air conditioning equipment. Designed by FEI Cheung, the fan features a sculptural aesthetic that encompasses the blade unit in the middle and a humidification system in the base. The system will passively infuse moisture into the air to help decrease the temperature in a space by up to six degrees to beat the heat in the summertime.
The conceptual 'Be-1 Fan' boasts a fashionable design and a discreet user interface that is integrated into the top section of the unit. The color-blocked finish adds a touch of contrast to position it as an appliance suitable for any work or living space.
Key Themes Behind This Trend
