Marc Berthier's Tykho Fan

3-6-tykho.jpg

Easy, breezy, beautiful. An established designer with works in the collections of MoMA and Centre Pompidou, Marc Berthier has a lot of street-cred. His Tykho Fan for Lexon features soft PVC blades and two speeds. Perfect for a backup breeze and we loved the way the colors worked with the design of the AT site!...

Is it just me, or do these seem like a child/pet/me- on-a-bad-day safety hazard?

Those Honeywell's are unattractive.

Harley: I think the "soft PVC blades" would bend easily. I know a lot of smaller fans can be easily stopped by hand (i.e. even unintentionally). Maybe this is how this one is?

This has already been done by Black & Blum's Propello fan:

They are indeed a hazard - its not the blades going round that will cause you injury - its getting something would round them and getting pulled in - this happened to a friend of mines hair and it had to be cut to get them loose - not good...
