Research the ability of ceiling fans to perform more than it’s typical tasks. Develop solutions to use ceiling fans as never before, creating a unique market niche.

My goal was to create additional functions of a ceiling fan for it to perform at any time. My final developed solution was a fan that had a separate holding bowl for scented wax beans above the light kit, so when the light was on, the heat melted the beans and the fan circulated the scent throughout the room. A safer alternative to candles and also offered wider scent distribution.
