In the design world, true credibility is never easy to come by; superstardom is even more rare. Industrial designer Robert Brunner has achieved both in spades. With talent to spare, Brunner infuses his projects for companies as diverse as NIKE, Dell®, and Apple® Computer – the latter where he provided direction and design for the Macintosh Powerbook – with transformative and game-changing design properties. Through his Ammunition Design Group, Brunner has taken his passion for fusing lifestyle with innovation to new heights on several projects, including a collaboration with rapper/producer Dr. Dre on the BEATS headset. Now, Brunner has brought his name and talent to Zephyr, an innovator of design-forward ventilation hoods.
	The Zephyr – ARC Collection by Brunner is pure geometry, bringing a sleek, minimalist aesthetic to not only the range hood, but the kitchen ecosystem as a whole. Classic materials like glass, steel, and wood – fused with innovative technology that holds indoor air quality to a higher standard – ensures that choosing a range hood from the Zephyr – ARC Collection is as much about clean air, as it about clean lines. Discover a few highlights of the Zephyr – ARC Collection for yourself:
	Horizon If the Horizon has a striking similarity to the all new iMac®, it’s not by accident. As the designer who brought a sleek, new-minimalist sensibility to Apple®, Robert Brunner has infused this range hood with a similarly striking style. Horizon enters a low-profile freefall just inches from the kitchen wall, then challenges its audience with a sweeping, thirty degree upward lift. Compelling in red, black, white glass or stainless steel, the glass surface may be etched in one of two patterns: a leaf motif on white glass, or flower on black glass. A removable front panel for easy cleaning and service access, and a duo of halogens, completes this beauty.
					Layers Re-imagining classic design is a specialty of Robert Brunner’s and with Layers, he has re-imagined the classic, wall-mount, range hood form. Slim in profile, it boasts a unique floating effect enhanced by the light from a duo of halogens. Layers’ clean lines and streamlined fusion of stainless steel with black or white glass lend new meaning to “leading edge.” Also available as an island hood.
	Tilt Having a presence is one thing; making a statement is something else altogether. The Tilt wall-mounted range hood – a contemporary sculpture for the kitchen – makes nothing short of a bold statement. A sextet of subtly angled panels “tilt” off the wall to form a hinged canopy like no other. Tilt comes clad in all-stainless steel or stainless steel underscored with a sleek, black powder coat. An upwardly mobile panel lifts for easy cleaning and service access, and dual halogen lamps provide the perfect accent.
				Duo There are few elements capable of bringing warmth into a contemporary home like wood. The Duo island range hood marries natural wood with sleek stainless steel; yet another way Robert Brunner pushes the boundaries of design. Imagine the options for matching the Duo range hood, topped with poplar wood and available in charcoal or wenge finish, with your kitchen’s cabinetry. A pair of halogen lights work in unison to underscore the eye-catching cantilevered design.
	RF Remote Control Never has a countertop been so well complemented than with this ingenious gem of a remote control. With the ability to command the power and light of ARC Collection range hoods from up to fifteen feet away, Zephyr ensures the best possible experience and proves that they bring more to the range hood than ever thought possible.
