Ceiling Fan
My friend and I used to watch the show Trading Spaces together all the time. I?m not sure why this became a habit for us, but it was something that we did each weekend. One of the things I never understood about the show was why it seemed each and every one of the designers they had on the show had a deep hatred for each ceiling fan they came into contact with. I used to wonder why it was considered such a hated item and if perhaps they had all taken a class in college called, ?How To Hate A Ceiling Fan 101.?
Each and every ceiling fan that they came into contact with was doomed. There was no saving any of them, no matter how practical they might be. Perhaps they have money to throw around, I don?t know, but sometimes you have to be practical above all else. It may not be the perfect look, but if it saves you from spending a lot of money on air conditioning, why on earth would you consider the ceiling fan to be something evil?
I suspect they were looking at it from the design aspect, and I can understand that. I don?t think all fans are ugly though, and they certainly have an important use in life. I have found that one ceiling fan set on low can keep a room cool enough in the summer that I didn?t have to turn on the air conditioning. It doesn?t take a rocket scientist to figure out that running a ceiling fan is a lot cheaper than running an air conditioner. We aren?t all made of money folks! Quite frankly I felt that those designers were so bent on the perfect room that they don?t realize the perfect looking room doesn?t do much good if you can?t bear to be in there because of the heat. It just seems like common sense to me.
If you want to have a ceiling fan in your home, don?t worry about what the designers on Trading Spaces think. They are a cost efficient way to keep a room or a home cooler, and they don?t really look that bad at all. In fact, if you get the right ceiling fan, you may find that you like the look of it and that I can compliment what you have done with the room. You can find them in almost any finish and you can find them to match a child?s room d?cor too.
