Designer Switches and Sockets
The automatic reach for the light switch is the first habitual act made when entering a room. It’s one of the first aspects of an interior that visitors are faced with on a regular basis, setting the tone for the rest of their experience.
With so much care taken over interiors, from architectural elements and lighting design, right down to barely-used furnishings, why is the humble light switch – a product used more than any other – given such little consideration?
From Retro Toggle to Minimalist Touch: Types of Switches
Think of a light switch, maybe you think of a simple, double push-button option. Perhaps it has an understated brushed chrome finish or a smart combination of brass and matt black, but it’s difficult to imagine much else – and there’s the problem.
Specifiers can find inspiration, however, in Architonic’s many switch subcategories. From retro toggle switches to minimalist touch switches, thermostat or smart home switches to light-integrated LED switches.
