Fans from the Period Arts Fan Company have been inspired by the West Coast Arts and Crafts Movement, the Greek Revival, Art Nouveau, the Austrian Secessionist Movement, and the Industrial Age. While they may be based on old designs, they use modern technology on the inside with lifetime motor warranties, electronic controls, and energy-saving compact fluorescent
lighting options available on all
ceiling fans.
Period Arts Fans have a good pedigree
Ron Rezek draws inspiration from a variety of sources. He uses this inspiration to create unique specialty fans. They channel the ideas of Dirk Van Erp (through the
Arcadia and
Bodega fans), Frank Lloyd Wright (through the
Prairie Fan), Benjamin Henry Latrobe (through the
Flute fan), Henry van de Velde, and Victor Horta (through the
Eclipse fan). Ron Rezek combines their ideas with his own background as a lighting designer: an MFA from UCLA, his time with mentors such as Henry Dreyfuss and Don Chadwick, and his experience running lighting showrooms. He continues to look to great European and American design movements to create original interpretations on what ceiling fans could have looked like.
