Modern Forms has expanded its smart fan lineup with the introduction of the SMOOTH Smart Ceiling Fan, now available exclusively through the AiSPIRE brand. For retailers, distributors, and manufacturers looking to capitalize on the growing demand for connected comfort and whole-home control ecosystems, the new fan delivers a blend of minimalist design, premium finishes, and broad system compatibility.
A Clean, Modern Aesthetic for Today’s Connected Home
The SMOOTH Smart Ceiling Fan features a streamlined, three-blade profile with a 52-inch sweep, designed to complement a wide range of residential spaces—from open living areas to bedrooms and retrofit applications. It comes in both downrod and flush-mount versions, allowing integrators and dealers to address varying ceiling heights and installation environments.
Finish options include Bronze, Matte Black, Matte White, and two dual-tone combinations: Brushed Nickel with Silver blades and Soft Brass with Matte Black blades. An integrated LED light with an opal lens adds ambient illumination, though installers can opt for a lightless, clean look using the included cap.
Built for Control System Compatibility
For the custom integration channel, control flexibility is essential—and Modern Forms addresses this directly. The SMOOTH fan works natively with many leading whole-home automation platforms, enabling customers to use existing keypads for fan and lighting control.
Where native integration isn’t available, the fan connects through the ABiCUS gateway, offering a unified pathway for integrators to bring the fan into virtually any control ecosystem.
This approach positions the SMOOTH Smart Fan as an easy add-on sale for dealers deploying lighting, shading, HVAC, or automation packages.
AiSPIRE: Integrator-Only Channel Strategy
AiSPIRE, the integrator-focused brand within the WAC Group, continues expanding its solutions beyond architectural lighting. The addition of the SMOOTH Smart Fan reinforces AiSPIRE’s mission to provide whole-home lighting and comfort solutions that work seamlessly across control environments.
AiSPIRE’s portfolio spans line- and low-voltage LED products, recessed and landscape lighting, decorative fixtures, and smart fans—all designed with project-level flexibility for new construction or retrofit. For distributors, the “integrator-only” channel positioning can help limit margin erosion and support a protected sales model.
Modern Forms and WAC Group: Growing the Smart Ceiling Fan Category
The launch also highlights the broader strategy of the WAC Group, whose brands—WAC Lighting, Modern Forms, Schonbek, and AiSPIRE—collectively deliver premium lighting and intelligent control solutions. Modern Forms has been a leader in the emerging smart-fan segment, offering designs that merge performance, connectivity, and luxury materials.
With more than 40 years in lighting technology, the WAC Group continues investing in categories that bridge design and smart home functionality. For CE retailers and distributors expanding into lighting or smart comfort devices, the SMOOTH fan offers a high-style, high-technology product that fits naturally within today’s connected-home assortments.
