Braun HL1

OVERVIEW

This project is entirely independent. I deeply admire the design behind Braun, the 3D model, photoprocessing, and editorial design completed all by me. Paragraphs by: https://museumderdinge.org/thing-of-the-month/braun-table-fan-hl1/

About the project

I recreated the iconic 1959 Braun HL 1 fan in Blender by first gathering reference images to ensure accurate proportions. After blocking out the base, housing, and chrome frame, I refined each component, applied realistic materials for metal and plastic, and added the transparent cover. Details like the Braun logo, original sticker, and a subtle repaired crack complete the authenticity. Finally, I fine-tuned lighting and camera angles to highlight its timeless design.
