Moon is a bladless fan thought to refresh outdoor environments such as bar, squares, seafront streets.

In summer period many of these public places become really sultry and humid: with this elegant ventilators a continue and soft ventilation is guarateed, creating the perfect environment to enjoy summer time. The minimal design with hidden blades makes the product perfect for the outdoor environment, mixing elegance and functionality, as it is much more resistant to atmospherical events than a classic fan.

The mechanism of “Moon”  is based on the principle of Venturi and on the Coanda Effect: thanks to these 2 physic’s laws the ventilator is able to increase the speed of the incoming air by 15 times.

The various color palette of the inside cilinder, togheter with the soft and minimal color of the main body, make “Moon” suitable to every environment, from sea contexts, such as seafront streets, to the bigger and muggy cities.

Thanks to the LED light installed in the step between the two circoular components, the product can be used also as a street lamp, providing fresh ventilated air 24h/24 while gently illuminating bars or street.
