The most common kinds of contemporary ceiling fans are acrylic, wood, plastic, metal, and rattan. If you are looking for a black ceiling fan or a white ceiling fan, which are the most sought after and commonly manufactured colors, you can find them in any of the above materials. But the contemporary designs will often offer a combination of many materials.
Most contemporary ceiling fans fit the “modern” bill because they are stream lined and sleek. However, many contemporary fans now on the market might commonly be placed in the vintage category, but defy general classification by merit of their singularity. Consider the 38” Esquire Rich Bronze Finish 3-Head Ceiling Fan that has, instead of regular blades, three separately caged fans, surrounding a manila-colored lamp in the middle. It looks as though it belongs in a pre-war factory, but might also make it into the study of an edgy, contemporary home. It comes with a price tag of $699.99, and is in a median-high range for pricing.
Many seeking that contemporary look also want something entirely unique. If this is the case, you can find many websites and fan accessory stores that allow you to design your own ceiling fan. On www.lampsplus.com, for example, designing your own fan requires five simple steps. First, you must choose the type of motor and the desired size of the fan. Next, select the right finish. Add custom blades, select from a variety of light kits and decorative glass shades (for fans that have a light), and then finally pick out a remote control, if you wish to have that kind of functionality in your ceiling fan.
Keep in mind that looking at various contemporary ceiling fans does not necessarily mean that you must commit to a seven hundred dollar price tag. You can find brand new ceiling fans for as low as $45, and if you are willing to go thrift store shopping, the possibilities of finding a cheap fan are virtually unlimited.
