The Modern Fan Company stands alone in bringing original design and innovation to the ceiling fan industry; their designs celebrate the modern idiom through mechanical simplification, geometric forms and contemporary finishes.  Several new improvements have been incorporated into their products to make them easier to install, more flexible in specification and simpler to maintain.  Company founder Ron Rezek's designs reflect his philosophy of  “simplicity in form and economy in production.” Among the innovations built into the Stratos is the column-like support (in place of the down rod used in other designs), lending a sense of attachment to the architectural space. The Stratos also introduced Rezek’s patented single-piece die-cast rotor, which continues to be the signature element of the majority of modern ceiling fans.   (Please click on "additional views" for spec and lighting information).
