Since 2013, a quiet revolution has been taking place inside homes across the world as plastic switches are upgraded (and hopefully properly recycled) in favor of solid metal switches made by the pioneering London design label, Buster + Punch.
The brand has a decade of elevated everyday architectural detailing into must-have statement pieces that exude quality and unrivaled attention to detail. The brand’s signature knurling, analogue functionality, solid metal finishes, and comprehensive detail kits have got the attention of influencers, home renovators and the odd rockstar here and there.
The rampant fanbase has positioned Buster + Punch’s switches as the ultimate upgrade for discerning homeowners and design enthusiasts who recognize the importance of details. According to the founder, it’s all about conveying the quality of space through meticulous details. Every element, from the texture of the knurling to the precision of the analogue operation, contributes to an enhanced sensory experience that elevates the touchpoint of a space.
Practically speaking, the switch is one of the easiest design upgrades in the home. It’s a simple case of consulting with an electrician, hitting the Buster + Punch website, selecting the right switch pairings or customising your own bespoke piece, and then getting your electrician to install them. And, as a growing number of the world’s most successful realtors agree, the return on investment only enhances experience.
