When the meticulous care for details and many innovative features create a product of distinguished design quality…
Elegantly shaped and finished surfaces, smooth and silently acting mechanisms, discretely informing indicator lights and a distinct graphic language make the extraordinary class of this switch range for Vimar sensible at every look and every touch. All with an air of subtle understatement. A luxurious range of classic electric functions extends to numberless top of the range electronic devices for comfort management and home automation. All modular functions are unified by a coherent and a characterizing design. Three lines of design frames offer the possibility to adapt the switch series to personal preferences and a large range of genuine materials, colors and finishes allow putting the product in perfect relation to the style of environment.
