About this seller
Private sellerProduct description
The Braun HL 1 "Multiwind" table fan is one of the most iconic examples of German industrial design from the 1960s. Designed by Reinhold Weiss for Braun and launched in 1961, the HL 1 received the prestigious Compasso d'Oro award and is now part of the permanent collection of the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in New York. Its simple and functional design embodies the spirit for which Braun is renowned. The Laing-Eck ventilation system, particularly quiet, became famous: a Braun HL 1 was notably used on John F. Kennedy's lectern during his speech in Frankfurt in 1963.
