Natural ventilation is an increasing trend amongst architects and interior designers.
Gone are the days of being stuck inside without natural, fresh air flowing through. There is now a greater need to build spaces that bring the outdoors inside, reducing the reliance on air conditioning and placing importance on a fresh breeze. It’s no surprise that ceiling fans are an important consideration into a building’s design to aid this natural ventilation and create comfortable airflow throughout a home.
Cumming’s House by Arcke Architecture, a multi-award winning architect practice in Brisbane, incorporated the Haiku ceiling fan by Big Ass Fans to help celebrate the original modernist features of the heritage listed home, and provide a seamless indoor-outdoor transition, leaving the original idiosyncrasies of the existing house relatively untouched.
Applicable in both the outside and inside environment, the Haiku ceiling fan enabled Arcke Architecture to elicit feelings of well-being and comfort, helping Cumming’s House bring the outside in and create a cooling effect without the need to shut the house up.
“Ceiling Fans provide movement of air for natural cooling. [The] Outside ventilation is enhanced by the movement of the ceiling fans and that is seen as an extension of the natural ventilation.” Kate Kennedy of Arcke Architecture says.
When considering air movement and airflow in their projects, Arcke Architecture always talks to clients about Haiku fans. The balance between efficiency and aesthetics is something they find unique to Haiku fans.
Arcke Architecture works regularly with Big Ass Fans in achieving their passive design principles.
