I know we're still stuck in winter, but here's looking to warm days and welcome breezes. I was so excited when I saw this newbie. Hello, wood fan! Finally, a modern fan that blows wind without bringing down the style of your room. I am a bit obsessed with this fan's maker, a Swiss company called Swizz-Style. I met them at the last Housewares show, and we now own + love a couple of their products (remember, the stylish humidifier?). And since every plastic fan we've owned has broken after 6 weeks, I'm thinking it's a smart idea to invest in this industrial fan. Otto the fan, I'd like to take you home. And I'm convinced that there's nothing designed with wood that I won't crush.
p.s. This post kicks off a string of posts today with a common theme: the modern side of home. If you've popped by my site before, you know I'm drawn to boho, vintage finds. Perhaps it's the Gemini in me, because I also appreciate many modern accents too. Stay tuned for a fun Q + A with Dwell's founder and a sneak peek inside a favorite modern shop!
