From the other side of the room, you might assume that the Illuminair is just another pendant lamp. With its powder-coated metal finish and its flaring form, it is clean, contemporary, fairly minimal, and you probably would not expect it to have a hidden second function.
Step a bit closer, however, and you'll notice a set of fins that circle the inside of the lampshade. These are part of a built-in turbine that allows the fixture to function as a ceiling fan. The beauty of this Quirky-made ventilator is that it can be effortlessly installed like a suspended light and operated with a remote or a light switch. Hassle-free in setup, maintenance and operation, the Illuminair is a fresh and efficient addition to any interior space.
