Ar Men Collection
A collection of high-end switches and electrical sockets
Matière Lumière, your manufacturer of high-end electrical equipment, was inspired by the famous Ar Men lighthouse to infuse the architectural spirit of this historic monument into a collection of electrical equipment.
Ar Men, which means “the rock” or “the stone” in Breton, is an iconic lighthouse built at the tip of Brittany in the 1860s. On an extremely dangerous site for sailors, the builders showed courage and innovation to guide and enlighten sailors during their crossings!
The designers of Matière Lumière were inspired by the formidable technical prowess represented by this famous Breton lighthouse to bring a collection worthy of carrying the values of this monument out of the Plaisir workshop.
“Highlighting the electrical equipment of your interior design” is part of Matière Lumière’s DNA. The luxury electrical equipment of the Ar Men collection meets the requirements of professionals, architects, decorators, and planners in search of excellence for the development of prestigious places, such as upscale residences and hotels.
A range of high-end electrical equipment that combines the strengths of the Originel and Métamorphose collections!
A daring marriage for a range of designer switches and sockets, suitable for all styles of interior design and all periods!
- The 19th century, Haussmann style: champagne or gold finish aluminium switches, with gilded levers
- The 20th century: vintage aluminium switches, charcoal finish with nickel pushbuttons
- The 21st century, for a contemporary style: switches in matte black brushed aluminium, gunmetal finish
- Mixed styles: with “trendy” switches in gold-finish aluminium, with gunmetal pushbuttons
The sizes and devices of the Ar Men collection
The conception of a range of high-end aluminium electrical equipment with the possibility of a “tailor-made” product is the challenge embarked on by the expert designers of Matière Lumière.
This range of luxury switches and sockets adapts to all your space planning configurations and all your architectural projects, with the possibility of custom manufacturing.
- Vertical plate switch sizes (80×80 mm plate, from one to three aluminium switches, 80×120 mm plate, from two to five aluminium switches and 80×160 mm plate, from one to six aluminium switches)
- Horizontal plate sizes for electrical sockets (80×80 mm plate, for one aluminium electrical socket, 80×160 mm plate, for two aluminium electrical sockets and 80×240 mm plate, for three aluminium electrical sockets).
