A 16-inch directional ceiling fan from Matthews Fan Company, ideal for small rooms, covered patios, and spaces where a full-size fan won't fit.
The Bianca Directional is a compact, handcrafted fan built from high-gauge steel with a white finish and mahogany blades. Its directional design allows you to aim airflow where you need it, making it a versatile choice for both interior and exterior damp locations. Made in the USA, this fan combines industrial durability with a warm, natural accent.
Best for
- Small bedrooms, home offices, or nooks up to 100 sq ft, mounted on a standard ceiling
- Covered patios, porches, or sunrooms where damp-rated fixtures are required
- Spaces with low ceilings, using a 5-inch downrod for close mounting
- Supplementing existing AC or heating by directing airflow across a room
- Industrial or transitional interiors that benefit from a white-and-wood palette
Not ideal for
- Large open-plan living areas over 200 sq ft - the 16-inch blade span is too small to move air effectively
- Rooms with ceilings under 7 feet, unless you use the shortest downrod and accept a lower mounting height
- Uncovered outdoor areas exposed to direct rain - this fan is rated for damp, not wet, locations
How bright is it?
This fan does not include a light kit, so brightness depends on your existing room lighting. It is designed for air circulation, not illumination.
Light color and feel
No light source is included, so there is no color temperature or dimming to consider. The fan's finish and blades contribute to the room's aesthetic rather than its light output.
Sizing and fit
The fan measures 16 inches wide, 13 inches deep, and 13 inches high (plus downrod). Downrods of 5, 10, 20, or 30 inches are available, letting you adjust the drop to suit your ceiling height. It weighs 15 lbs and is designed for standard ceiling mounting.

Frequently asked
Is the bulb included? This fan does not include a light kit, so no bulb is included.
Is it dimmable, and what dimmer should I use? Not applicable - this is a fan, not a light fixture.
Can I install this in a bathroom or outdoors? It is rated for damp locations, so it can be installed in covered outdoor areas or bathrooms with adequate ventilation, but not in direct rain or wet areas.
What's the warranty? Warranty information is not specified by the manufacturer.
What downrod length should I choose? For standard 8-foot ceilings, a 5-inch downrod works well; for higher ceilings, choose a longer rod to position the fan 7-9 feet above the floor.
