The Haiku Fan is Chock-Full of Silent Technology
Meghan Young — May 10, 2012 — Art & Design
Don't be deceived by the simple and sleek design of the Haiku Fan. As clear as it is that this striking ceiling fan is made for modern spaces, it fails to reflect the technology it is chock-full of. Granted, that is probably a good thing. Clean and minimalist, the Haiku Fan is perfect for any area including the home and office.
Designed by the Big Ass Fan Company, the Haiku Fan boasts Sensorless Drive Technology, which involves a unique, ultra-efficient direct current motor with patent-pending electronic controls. The use of such a motor sets new standards for quiet ceiling fans. Also, in place of blades, the Haiku Fan features three airfoils that are specifically shaped to move more air with less effort.
