Less is more: the light switch as a stylish feature of the interior

Whereas in the past the focus was mainly on flooring, wall finishes and lighting, attention is increasingly shifting to the smallest details in an interior. Even light switches are now an integral part of the overall design. With System 70, Gira demonstrates that a light switch need not merely be functional, but can also serve as a sophisticated design element.

The strength of System 70 lies in its simplicity. The larger, flat control surface has a calm and minimalist appearance, allowing the switch to blend subtly into the architecture of the room. It is precisely this understated design that makes it timeless and suitable for a wide range of interior styles, from modern and Scandinavian to warm minimalism.

Behind the minimalist design lies a clever and future-proof system. All functions have been developed within a single modular platform, meaning that light switches, dimmers, USB charging points and smart home controls share the same design language. This creates a harmonious whole in which technology and design come together seamlessly.

With four design ranges, five colours and over 200 functions, System 70 offers plenty of freedom to tailor switchgear to the look and feel of a home or project. The system thus meets the growing demand for interiors in which every detail has been carefully chosen.

This design philosophy is nothing new for Gira. As early as 1966, the brand introduced the first flush-mounted switch. Sixty years on, that same vision still forms the basis for new innovations, in which aesthetics, ease of use and smart technology complement one another.

Anyone wishing to experience the collection for themselves is welcome to visit the Gira Experience Centre in Veenendaal, where they can explore the various design ranges and smart home solutions at close quarters.
