Sculptural Humidification Fans

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The Conceptual 'Be-1 Fan' Cools Down the Temperature by Six Degrees

— May 16, 2019 — Tech
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.
Trend Themes
1. Sculptural Fans - Opportunity to design fans that not only perform their function but also serve as an aesthetic element in interior design
2. Targeted Cooling Systems - Opportunity to design cooling systems that provide cooling relief in specific areas and eliminate the need for whole-room air conditioning units
3. Passive Humidification - Opportunity to develop humidification systems that can infuse moisture into the air passively, helping decrease temperatures in hot environments
Industry Implications
1. Home Appliances - Companies that manufacture fans and air conditioners can explore new designs and targeted cooling solutions
2. Interior Design - Opportunity for interior designers to incorporate sculptural fans and other cooling systems into their designs to serve both functional and aesthetic purposes
3. Environment Control Systems - Opportunity for companies that specialize in environmental control to develop new, passive humidification systems that can help reduce temperatures and increase comfort in hot environments
