LC 1912. reduced switch design, focus on functionality in building technology.
The German company JUNG stands for electrical equipment and building technology at the highest level. Innovative technologies, high quality, technology from Germany - architecture is thought of here as a whole, right down to the smallest detail. JUNG continues this tradition with the LS 1912 toggle switch. However, it is a contemporary interpretation: In the interplay of material and mechanics, the LS 1912 switch exudes a very special charm. The highly functional toggle switch has a small LED light that indicates whether the light is switched on or off or shows the position of the light switch in dark rooms. The special feature: The cylinder version of the switch in the metal version is now available in the Les Couleur® edition by Le Corbusiers. We have taken the 63 shades from Le Corbusier's comprehensive Polychromie Architecturale color system, all of which have an artistic and historical background and are architecturally coordinated.
Reduction as a stage - brand spaces & CGI for the LS 1912 switch
Danthree Studio was commissioned to create the CGI product images and the associated brand spaces for JUNG. CGI product images for building technology can show a lot - the manufacturer's brand communication is always implicit. And this was the great challenge for our CGI artists and interior designers. Reduced designs do not leave much scope for elaborate communication. The LS 1912 switch is extremely minimalist.
Look, feel, functionality - 3D renderings for switch design / building technology
The LS 1912 switch was launched on the market by JUNG in 2012 and is based on the JUNG switch of the early years. The mechanics of switching were brought to life in a new way here: at the beginning of the 1920s, the toggle switch replaced the rotary switch in our range. The LS 1912 is therefore a tribute to the history of JUNG. The toggle switch is an impressive experience both visually and haptically and bears the company's founding year in its name. The LS 1912 thus conveys both the tradition of the family company and the historical switching feel. The latter is translated into a new form and once again demonstrates JUNG's special know-how from metal processing to mechanics.
The toggle switch can be integrated into the JUNG Smart Home systems and is more than just a light switch: blinds can be operated with it as well as extensive scenes, light can be dimmed and more. It can be inserted into the one- to five-fold frames of the LS range and thus fits into any standard flush-mounted box. More than 200 different inserts are available in combination.
Material. Color. Emotion - how CGI makes the complexity of the LS 1912 visible
And that's not all: whether single or multiple cones, pilot light, made of aluminum or stainless steel - the LS 1912 is available in numerous different lever shapes and materials. The brushed, matt metal surfaces look particularly elegant. They only reflect the light very delicately, but the play of light on the metal surface makes them a challenge that our artists were happy to take on for 3D visualization. And even more: we were allowed to realize the Les Couleurs® design concepts for this switch. Les Couleurs® is Le Corbusier' s approach to understanding color as an inherent part of architecture and thus on a par with floor plan and form. The colors taken from nature connect people, living space and the environment. They let us know exactly what JUNG wants to achieve with its innovative building technology: the living space appeals to people and meets them on an emotional level. This is exactly what the product images by Danthree Studio convey - placing the high-quality switches in a minimalist, luxurious and yet people-friendly living context.
The fact that JUNG is also attracting international attention with this concept is shown by the article in Architecture Today, in which the integration of the Les Couleurs® Le Corbusier color worlds into the LS 1912 range is praised as a successful fusion of design history and modern building technology.
