BladeRunner – Dyson Runs Blades Right off of the Fan

That quirky company that brought the world to its knees over purple vacuums that promised to suck have now tackled a different version of airflow: the fan.

Dubbed the AirMultiplier, Dyson delivers the first fan sans blades – sort of. If you review the full diagram you’ll see blades are still needed in the column portion. The overall look is without a doubt stunning, and could probably keep a mother of little ones happy with less risk of losing fingers. This would also make a great conversation piece in the office.

This company is absolutely inspiring in how they bring design to the masses.

However, hovering around $300+, you’ll need to debate if you should forego disappearing blades and opt for the disappearing magazine to fan yourself with instead.
