cool shade

The form of the Shade range hood relates directly to its function. Created by designer Fu-Tung Cheng for Sacramento, Calif.–based Zephyr, the matchbook-inspired hood has a cover that automatically starts the unit when it’s opened or tucks away when not in use. Homeowners also have the option to use interchangeable bamboo, copper, ribbed glass, or stainless steel panels. The shade is available in 36-, 42-, and 48-inch widths and has halogen lighting and an optional 600 CFM blower. Zephyr Ventilation, 888.880.8368; www.zephyronline.com.
