Fanco Australia

Ceiling fans have evolved far beyond their original purpose of simply moving air. Today, they are key design elements that influence a room’s overall aesthetic, helping to create spaces that feel cohesive and inspired. Our Flow DC ceiling fan embodies this shift, blending innovative engineering with timeless elegance to deliver a package rich in both functionality and beauty. When designing the Flow, our goal was clear: create a fan that is more than just an appliance. Drawing inspiration from organic forms, the Flow’s design uniquely extends gracefully upwards from the motor housing in a single smooth motion. The Flow’s beauty runs deeper than its exterior. At its core is an energy-efficient DC motor, delivering powerful yet whisper-quiet performance while keeping energy consumption impressively low. Paired with an integrated CCT LED light, the Flow offers a combination of functionality and style that makes it as practical as it is elegant, seamlessly harmonising with modern interior styles both an aesthetic and functionality level. The Flow is ideal for those who value both style and performance. Its sophisticated aesthetic and smooth operation make it a versatile addition to any modern home. Whether you’re an architect seeking the perfect finishing touch for a project, a designer aiming to elevate your client’s space, or a homeowner looking for a fan that blends seamlessly with contemporary interiors, the Flow is a standout choice.

Sustainability is integral to modern architecture. Often, it’s the simplest design choices—orientation, materials, and airflow—that dramatically reduce a building’s energy footprint and elevate its aesthetic, sustainability, and—most importantly—its liveability. This ethos is at the heart of Wardle and Spence Construction’s vision for the Burnt Beach House, an inspiring example of how thoughtful design can seamlessly connect a home to its natural environment. The Burnt Beach House is more than a residence; it’s a multi-generational home rooted in a legacy, designed to honour its history while embracing sustainable innovation. The use of terracotta bricks in earthy browns and greens blends beautifully with the surrounding cliffs and flora, visually integrating the structure with its coastal environment. These same bricks line the home’s interior, providing exceptional insulation to maintain a stable indoor climate. The result is a resilient, comfortable interior that requires minimal energy intervention. True to sustainable principles, the home is fully electric, powered by systems that include a heat exchange water system, hydronic heating, and solar panels. Together, these elements not only reduce the home’s energy usage and running costs but also help preserve the meaningful ties between architecture and landscape, maintaining the legacy of the family it represents. The structure’s cruciform layout places the dining area at its heart, creating a natural flow between spaces while reinforcing its connection to the outdoors. Windows and openings are strategically placed to welcome fresh air and natural light, enhancing comfort and creating a sense of harmony with the surrounding landscape. Adding to this experience, a Fanco Infinity-iD 54” ceiling fan graces the dining space, providing whisper-quiet, high-performance airflow that further enriches the serene, airy ambiance. With its minimalist design, the fan complements the home’s architectural lines, becoming a subtle yet elegant focal point within the interior. Burnt Beach House exemplifies what’s possible when architecture is interwoven with its surroundings—a place where aesthetics and sustainability meet to create a truly liveable home. We’re proud to have contributed to such a thoughtful, forward-thinking project and look forward to collaborating on more innovative, sustainability-focused projects in the future. 🔗 See more about the Project Here: https://lnkd.in/ezkybeMG 📸 Photography credits to Dan Preston Studio   #fanco #spenceconstruction #wardle #anglesea #builtenvironment #sustainablearchitecture #ceilingfan #ceilingfans #sustainability #design #construction #ventilation #architecture #ecoarchitecture #passivedesign #building #victoria #australia

At Fanco, sustainability isn’t merely a goal—it’s our ethos. Our journey to develop the Gaia DC - the first fan in our EarthFirst range - stemmed from one essential question: "How much do we know what the environmental impact of the materials, and how they are produced?" Driven by this mission, we explored the manufacturing process, targeting areas with the greatest potential for positive change. Knowing materials play a critical role in reducing ecological cost, we dedicated years to developing alternative, sustainable options that maintain the quality and durability our fans are known for. This journey culminated in the Gaia DC, a ceiling fan that rewrites the standards for sustainable innovation. Every detail in its design reflects our commitment to environmental consciousness. The Gaia DC’s FSC® Certified solid timber blades are responsibly sourced, exemplifying a union of elegance and ecological responsibility with their natural finish. The motor housing, crafted from bio-based plastic, incorporates 25% organic material, reducing reliance on fossil fuels while achieving a unique terrazzo-textured 'Ecru' finish. These choices allowed us to create a ceiling fan that preserves beauty, performance, and impact-conscious design. The Gaia DC retains all the hallmark Fanco elements: an ultra-efficient DC motor, gentle 60 RPM low-speeds, impressive airflow on high, and our 8-year warranty—all thoughtfully paired with a user-replaceable dimmable CCT LED to offer a seamless blend of sustainability and longevity. In recognition of this, the Gaia DC was honoured with the prestigious Good Design Award, applauded for its innovation in sustainable materials and environmental focus: “Fanco’s Gaia ceiling fan, part of the EarthFirst range, features eco-friendly plastics and FSC-certified wood blades, delivering a stylish, high-performance cooling solution for the environmentally conscious homeowner. The Jury commended its material selection and circularity focus, achieved without aesthetic compromise.” We are immensely proud of the Gaia DC and its place within our broader commitment to environmentally responsible design. As we continue this journey, the initial question that led us here remains our compass, guiding us toward a future where sustainable innovation is not only possible but essential. 🔗 Discover the Gaia DC: https://lnkd.in/gbZxANhK 🌱 Explore our commitment to sustainability: https://lnkd.in/gvzNYm-b #Fanco #GaiaDC #EarthFirst #Sustainability #GoodDesignAward #SustainableInnovation #Architects #Designers #GreenDesign #EngineeringExcellence #EnergyEfficiency #Australia

Recently, we had the distinct pleasure of participating in Archify Live 2024 at the magnificent Sydney Town Hall, where we formally launched the first of our EarthFirst range, the Gaia DC ceiling fan. This boutique trade show provided an invaluable opportunity for engagement with industry leaders and design professionals, allowing us to demonstrate how changing certain materials and processes within the production structure can help manufacture something unique, innovative, and sustainable, without sacrificing quality or stunning aesthetics. The evening was marked by insightful conversations and enriching networking opportunities, as we showcased the Gaia fan—an embodiment of our commitment to sustainable innovation. Recognised by Good Design Australia with a Good Design Award the Gaia with its FSC® 100% Certified Timber Blades and Bio-Based Plastic Motor Housing, is not only a testament to exceptional design and performance but also to our ongoing efforts to minimise environmental impact. Julia Kahan, our General Manager, eloquently articulated our vision during her presentation, stating, “Our goal has always been to create ceiling fans that push the limits of design, and with the Gaia Fan, eco-conscious consumers no longer have to compromise on style or function. It’s more than a fan; it’s a statement of our dedication to a sustainable future and a bold step forward in our industry.” We extend our heartfelt gratitude to Archify for hosting such a successful event and to all the architects and designers who engaged with us. Your commitment to innovation and excellence inspires us as we continue to lead the way in sustainable ceiling fan innovation. #Fanco #GaiaCeilingFan #ArchifyLive2024 #SustainableDesign #InnovationInDesign #GreenFuture #InteriorDesign #EnergyEfficiency #DesignInnovation #BoutiqueBrands #CeilingFans

We are extremely proud to announce that our Gaia DC Ceiling Fan, part of the EarthFirst range, has received the Good Design Australia Award for outstanding innovation and sustainable design. At Fanco, we recognise the need to move beyond traditional manufacturing processes, and although ceiling fans have become more energy efficient, the materials used in their production often remain environmentally taxing. With the Gaia, we aimed to rethink these processes by using sustainable materials that reduce carbon emissions and reliance on fossil fuels, all while adhering to responsible design principles. The Australian Good Design Awards Jury recognized these efforts, stating: "Fanco’s Gaia ceiling fan is part of the new EarthFirst range, featuring eco-friendly plastics and FSC-certified wood blades. It offers a stylish, high-performance cooling solution for environmentally conscious homeowners.
