I was walking to the register of the Antique Mall with it in my hands.
My dad had a version of this fan in his office. I remember distinctly pressing the buttons way too often and talking into the blades, adding staccato to my voice.
It was tactile and futuristic and awesome.
Bonus? What looks to be Eurostile for the controls and the playful serif logo… it’s all just so lovely!
It took every fiber of my being to put it back on the shelf at the antique store, but I did. (Because I searched for it online and realized it also comes in a brown color way.)
We had that fan, too.
