What if you never mix up switches and their purpose?
What if going smart is intuitive?
What if you can tell the function of a switch by its' shape?
What if you sense the material of a switch as gentle and beautiful?
What if using a switch is fun?
The X-TOIS is the analogue switch of the series. The clear shape distinguishes on from off.
It rotates and is easy to grab
– for everyone.
The Y-TOIS is the digital switch:
Its' shape is clearly different.
Haptical markers on the arms allow a clear mapping of the functionalities.
The O-TOIS works as dim-switch.
The shape is paired with an analogue interface to control the adjustment.
TOIS is a series of switches entirely made from concrete, a perfect substitute for plastics.
The material shows unique and long lasting esthetics, whilst the user experience is intuitive and playful.
TOIS are made to match with electronic standards in industry.
The TOIS-outlet is designed for 230V, according to
the Type-F standard.
Interface information is brought to users by light-dots with a shadow-masking effect, mimicing a low-res-display
– simple and timeless.
The TOIS series of concrete switches received recognition at 2020 Design Plus powered by light and building and was awarded with Special Mention for Young Professionals.
