It’s officially summer (YAY!), and the temperatures are rising. When you come home from a sunny day at the beach, you want to unwind in the (hopefully cool) comfort of home.

Whether you’re cooling your home with breezes through an open window or the chilly hum of the AC, the most important factor to summer survival is to keep the air flowing so that you don’t end up sitting in a hot, humid box.

What’s the best way to do that? Why, ceiling fans of course!

I know, I know. I can hear you from here!

Allison, ceiling fans are NOT COOL. But I need you to trust me on this.

Ceiling fans have evolved a lot since the ugly overhead monsters of your youth. You can circulate air through your home (practical!) and not compromise your design style (beautiful!).


CEILING FANS THAT DON’T SUCK


  1. Simple is the name of the game, the Piston 3-Blade Fan from All Modern is a sleek stainless steel version with a dimmable light.
  2. We’re very into the sought-after mid-century design of the Valby 4-Blade Fan at Wayfair 
  3. We’re channeling vintage airplane propellers and loving the warmth of this oak with Spillman Casablanca 3-Blade Fan at Wayfair 
  4. Minka Aire 3-Blade Fan at Wayfair is slim and sleek, the power and utility you need and gorgeous design you want. 
  5. The classic look of the Minka Aire Aluma Wet from Wayfair has an added bonus: use it to cool your interior or add it to an outdoor patio space for hot summer nights! 
  6. The white, matte Monte Carlo Clarity II from Bellacor can disappear into the ceiling of your space for a less prominent feel while still adding to the overall look of the room.
  7. The Bullet 4-Blade Fan at All Modern, where minimalist design and matte finishes meet practical function and a beautiful beacon light.
