I'm not sure if anyone has seen this yet or not, but Big Ass Fans put out this fan called the Haiku which is not particularly my style of fan, but it still is a pretty cool industrial-shaped fan. I'm interested in seeing one in person for sure. www.haikufan.com/

I've seen it but I don't like it. Their presentation is cool but at the same time it makes older classic looking brass fans that we like look bad.
It's better looking than the Enigma but it's still very cold and ugly looking. The blades have a cool shape, it's mostely the too thick downrod and the upper canopy that I don't like.
It's not an industrial ceiling fan, it's made mostely for residential application.

I'd still buy one if they weren't so expensive.

Yea I wouldn't buy one either. I'd like to see one in person though and take it apart so I could see exactly how everything works.

Try contacting Big A$$ Fan Company, who makes the Haiku, and ask them where you can see one in person. I would love to see one in person as well.

Meh. It's innovation, but I like my fans classic style. I think they still have some work to do too, we don't all live in a freakin loft with 10+ foot ceilings. That thing would never fit in with my home like a nice Casablanca does.

They're interesting but not really my thing either. I've seen worse out there.

They show people in videos on their website installing them on eight foot ceilings.

Not really my style either, but there's far worse out there...
