Designed by PDF HAUS, this conceptual House of Marley X Air wooden fan imagines if the high-end audio brand forayed into the world of home appliances. The fan merges the design aesthetics that the House of Marley has become known for including wooden design and a distinct focus on the technology items of the past.
The House of Marley X Air fan blends wood and textile to create a small appliance that actually looks kind of like a speaker system. The spherical, sculpted design harkens back to the technology design of yesteryear that focused on natural materials with a softer touch rather than the aluminum and metal design of today.
The House of Marley X Air wooden fan features an adjustable angle that allows it to blast cooling breezes in a variety of different directions.
