KUSIKUS - Believed to be potent shield from the fury of the wind gods in northwestern communities of Luzon. The whirlwind is depicted in geometric form through the combined use of negative and positive squares and rectangles arranged in varying sizes which produce an optical illusion similar to the movement of the whirlwind and whirlpools – the abode of wind gods. 

This particular pattern of Inabel was used as a ship's sail during the prominence of the Galleon Trade present in the Philippine Islands at the time. It was also used by local voyagers and fishermen. The form is based on ship sails. When the fan turns, it's as if the sails are being carried by the wind.

Aside from having the Inabel textile as a fan blades, the ceiling fixture will also have a light in the middle. The light is placed inside a wooden enclosure that also has 'Kusikus' as a pattern in its carvings.  

The design is for general use but it also aims to be a fusion of art and design; a piece that is a conversation starter  in the room.
