Product design

Hanna is a fan developed from a direct reference to the windmill. The project deliberately departs from the conventional aesthetics of fans by using a single, visible and central blade as its main element. The overall design is derived from this formal and mechanical reference.

The fan is designed around a single paper blade, cut and folded, and delivered as a kit to assemble. The blade is removable and interchangeable, allowing the appearance of the fan to be changed by simply replacing the blade according to personal preference.

Hanna was developed in collaboration with the Swiss fan brand Stadler Form. The project was selected by the brand and used as part of its communication in 2021.
