Over the weekend I rediscovered how great ceiling fans instead of air conditioners are while visiting a friend’s weekend home in Long Island. Not only are they more energy-efficient, but the breeze they generate feels better too.
Most traditional ceiling fans look dated or have poorly designed gadgets like lights that make them look old-fashioned. 
I was delighted to discover Ron Rezek’s Cirrus Ceiling Fan created in 1999, which received the Environmental Protection Agency’s Energy Star rating for energy efficiency. It’s perfect for lofts or other high ceilings. Then there’s the Cirrus Hugger, which is more compact for lower ceilings. They are about 50% more efficient than standard models and impress with their sleek design. Both models come in aluminum or glossy white and are available through The Modern Fan Company and Design Within Reach.
