From the comfort of your tablet, laptop or desktop computer, the new Clipsal Wishlist web tool helps you plan all the products you need for an electrical home makeover, including selecting individual solutions such as light switches, or electrical product packages designed for home safety, convenience, security, entertainment and energy efficiency.

Designed to make the planning process of a renovation or new build easy, the Clipsal Wishlist app allows you to use an existing room template, upload or draw house plans, select and place products throughout your home and track the budget of the products selected along the way. The plan can then be saved, shared and returned to at any time. To make things even simpler, the web tool is also linked to registered residential electricians in your local area, who can be contacted directly from the application to bring your dream plan to life.

Not only does the Clipsal Wishlist web tool help you take control of your own electrical needs, it also offers inspiration if the dream home vision doesn’t come with the flick of a switch. The Clipsal Wishlist web tool offers a gallery of home ideas, designs and templates that show which electrical plans and products work best with various interior design styles.

Whether you are renovating, building or planning your next bathroom, kitchen, bedroom or outdoor area, the Clipsal Wishlist web tool takes the guesswork out of planning and brings you one step closer to making your perfect home a reality.

Light switches can be colour co-ordinated too…

Sponsored by Clipsal

Colour coordination is important with all aspects throughout the home, whether it is matching cushions to wall colours, coordinating accessories in the bedroom or even complimentary towel choices in the bathroom. Light switches are not an exception to this rule! However, we all know colour and interior trends change as quickly as they come into fashion.

With the Clipsal by Schneider Electric range of switches, adding colour or texture to your home is simple and styles can be updated quickly and easily to suit or change the look and feel of any room in the house.

A0004664The simple elegance of the Saturn range complements classical interior design looks through its textural and metallic finishes that are available in a variety of colours, including: Ocean Mist, Espresso Black, Pure White, Horizon Silver and Horizon Black. Through the silky smooth push button operation, subtle blue LED push button option and glass-look fascia, the Saturn range creates a classic style which can be integrated to any room to create a subtle and timeless statement without clashing with colour schemes or finishes.

The interchangeable coloured surrounds means when a new trend appears, the colour can be quickly and easily updated. The Strato 8000 series has a vast selection of colours to choose from for any room in the home. If one of the standard 20 interchangeable coloured surrounds, including Juicy Green or Moleskin White don’t suit, then custom colour surrounds from the Laminex range mean switches can easily be changed to suit all future trends and styles.

With so much choice on the market it is easy to choose a beautiful and innovative light switch that can meet individual needs and tastes, whether this is making a bold colour statement, or achieving a classic, understated subtle touch in a home.
