Q-BIC SWITCHES

Precision engineering provides the inspiration for the Q-BIC switches range resulting in a no frills design with crisp, clean lines. The minimalistic industrial aesthetic can be further enhanced by using SCREW fixing and TOGGLE lever options.

ELEMENT SWITCHES

Art Deco elegance and decadence, a period that embraced both handcraft and machine production, provides the inspiration for this switches range. The rounded edges and plush finish are achieved with extensive hand finishing resulting in each cover plate being slightly unique. These are very labour intensive to produce and made to last forever.

ICE SWITCHES

Our ICE switches range combines the playfulness of Pop Art with the elegance of modern design. The cover plates appear to be enveloped in ice cubes and we can mostly match colours to requirements.

ICE cover plates can be fun and striking or subtle and sophisticated. Either way they are uniquely Lumen8.

See ICE gallery

RAW SWITCHES

RAW switches cover plates are individually machined from solid materials such as Corian and Bamboo. A shadow line provides a floating appearance while the beveled edges echo shapes of cast concrete.

GHOST SWITCHES

An industry-first switchgear system where these switch cover plate fit flush with the wall. By matching the cover plate with the wall finish it disappears, giving rise to the name "Ghost."

SWITCHGEAR

We had to invent a word to adequately describe our amazing, bespoke switches. The word "switches" lacked impact and the designer element we felt our product deserved. Other companies do light switches and sockets. We do "switchgear". Our designer handmade switchgear is custom manufactured per order to bespoke requirements. These specifications are determined after a period of consultation where we assist in all aspects including wall box sizes (we have many options to suit), cover plate styles & finishes to lever and dimmer types. We even offer the option of elegantly labelling your levers. The choices are endless which can be daunting, but our experienced consultants will work together with the homeowner, architect, interior designer, and electrician to enable a smooth, stress-free process. Our tailormade switchgear offers unique finishes not found elsewhere. For example, we are able to produce antique-looking Aged Metals such as Pewter, Brass, Copper, Stainless Steel, and Mild Steel. Whether the objective is to achieve a rustic, post modern, industrial, art deco, or pop art theme, Lumen8 switchgear can complement any interior design. The projects we typically provide switchgear for are residential homes, game lodges, penthouses, and hotels. We have specialized in creating our, Proudly-Made-In-South-Africa, switchgear in Cape Town for well
over two decades and would welcome the opportunity to be of service to you.

SWITCHGEAR

We had to invent a word that adequately describes our amazing switches. The word "switches" lacked impact and the designer element associated with our product. There are the usual light switches and sockets but our unique bespoke offerings are better described as "switch-gear". Lumen8 designer handmade switch-gear is custom manufactured per order to exact requirements. These specifications are determined after a period of consultation where we assist in advising on all aspects including wall box sizes, cover plate styles & finishes and lever & dimmer types. We even offer elegant labelling for levers. The choices are endless which can be daunting, but our experienced consultants will work together with the homeowner, architect, interior designer, and electrician to enable a smooth and stress-free process. Lumen8 tailormade switch-gear offers unique finishes developed by ourselves such as vintage aged metals. The cover plate ranges (Q-BIC, ELEMENT, ICE, RAW and GHOST) will provide a style required for any interior whether it be Minimilist, Art Deco, Post Modern, Rustic or Pop Art culture. Besides the switch-gear we are known for, we also do associated products like LED wall lights, Desk Podz (desk sockets for efficient work spaces) and X-Tension Podz (extension power leads for staying charged up). All products are proudly made in Cape Town, South Africa and sold everywhere.
