20 Gorgeous Modern Ceiling Fans We Love
A round-up of 20 beautiful ceiling fans to add modern style to a room while keeping the climate comfortable.
No matter if it’s July or January, we’re still clinging to our ceiling fans for dear life over here. I blame it on the fact that we live in the South.
Whenever I share Olivia’s bedroom or our living room, the number one question I got was “Where did you get that ceiling fan?”
(Some affiliate links are provided below. Full disclosure here.)
Every time I put a ceiling fan in a room, the number one comment I get is “Thank you for putting up ceiling fan!”
Maybe it’s not what all the “cool kids” do (punny mom jokes…har har), but ceiling fans get more of a bad rap than they deserve.
If you’re in the same fan must-have situation, this one’s for you. I rounded up all of my favorite ceiling fans that are seriously GORGEOUS! They’ve come a long way in the last 5-10 years.
We currently have 5 in our house (a must here in the usually hot, humid Carolinas even with adequate a/c).
Fandeliers in Our Home
Ever since we found bladeless ceiling fan chandeliers as an alternative to the traditional blade ceiling fan, there’s been no turning back for us.
This woven fandelier we put in Olivia’s room is perfect for a bedroom since the moving air is strongest directly underneath. It’s great for hanging over a bed if you’re a hot sleeper.
This fandelier that I spray painted gold in our living room cost a little more than we’d normally spend on a fan, but I don’t regret it one bit.

Ceiling Fans in Our Home
Most of our bladed ceiling fans can be changed up by flipping the blades over to reveal a different color, if we ever wanted to switch up the look without spending anything. And every single one of them gets serious breeze action happening when we need it.
I’m totally smitten over this modern matte brass fan in the guest bedroom. It comes in other colors too.
This pair of white outdoor fans have helped soooo much for cooling our back porch on breeze-less days and also to keep the bugs away.
And I swear I wouldn’t sleep a wink without this black and brass fan in our primary bedroom.
Here are a few others that are totally design-worthy and come with great reviews. They’re not yo mama’s ceiling fans.

Are you in Camp Ceiling Fan or Camp Chandelier in the bedroom?
As much as I would LOVE to be Camp Chandelier (because they’re so prettyyyyyyy), I have a feeling I’ll always and forever be a fan girl.
Got any other good fan recs to add to the list? We’re always fans of a good fan.

I’m not too far from you, in Spartanburg, SC, and I absolutely could not live without ceiling fans. The bedroom fan is on year round. I get that chandeliers are pretty, but they are just not practical in certain climates. Team Ceiling Fan all the way!
I agree!!!! Unfortunately our older home does not have a ceiling fan. However, I have a slim style vornado in our bedroom. It is isn’t very pretty but’s have to have it blowing on me all night. I cannot handle being hot. BTW where is fall?? Here in Memphis I am sweltering!!
Thank you for this post! Team ceiling fan all the way!
Definitely a fan girl! The So Cal temps make fans a must-have. I need to replace the fans in my Jack and Jill bedroom. They’re 30 years old and work well but they are small and look outdated. The accordion wall that divided the room is long gone but since its’ meant to be two bedrooms, I need two matching fans. I keep putting off replacing them since buying two fans is going to be a hit to my budget! Thanks for showing me great options!
I live in NE Ohio and I’m still a ceiling fan girl in the bedroom because good sleep is so important and it’s proven by research that staying cool while you sleep produces more REM sleep 😉 Plus my hubby wouldn’t have it any other way….he’s like a furnace.
