Switches With Attitude

Buster + Punch's modern aesthetic line of electrical finishes includes light switches, dimmer switches, plug sockets, USB outlets, custom plates and modules.

By Carissa Duhamel Issue 307 - June 2022

While switches are a practical necessity, many detail-oriented homeowners are looking for more than dull plastic switches and wall plates. The challenge of executing a modern, luxe aesthetic across overall design down to functional details falls on the shoulders of builders–sometimes with limited and lackluster options. London-based home decor and fashion brand Buster + Punch offers unique product choices that could help.

Inspired by custom motorcycles and London subculture scenes, Buster and Puch’s collection of light switches, dimmer switches, plug sockets, USB outlets, custom plates, modules, and other electric details are crafted from solid metals including brass, bronze, steel, anodised metal, and polycarbonate. Their dimmer and toggle switches are made utilizing a diamond-cut, cross-knurl pattern while flat plates are secured with solid metal coin screws.

Finish colors include matte black, white, smoked bronze, and steel with customization options available. Plates are designed for modules ranging from one- to four-gang box configurations.

Pricing for a 1G toggle switch starts at $61.
