7 small choices that will dramatically change your home
October is the month when we all turn inward en masse. Homes are back in the spotlight. Comfort is more important than ever. But what if your home doesn't quite feel the way you want it to? What if it's just not quite right?
You don't have to start any renovations. No walls to demolish.
Sometimes the difference can be found in the smallest choices.
This month we discovered it ourselves. And now we're sharing our 7 favorite tweaks – each one small, but with a big impact.
1. Replace standard switches with touch controls
The white plastic click switch is still the norm in many homes. But there's a better way. With a glass touch switch from Thorn , you can instantly change the feel of a room. No more clicking. No more noise. Just peace, style, and intuitive operation.
✅ Available in black, white and champagne colour
✅ Combine with dimmers or smart functions
✅ Fits on existing flush-mounted boxes
2. Choose dimmers instead of fixed lighting
Fixed lighting quickly feels harsh. Bright. Impersonal. A dimmer creates ambiance and control – and lets you experience each room differently at any time.
✅ Ideal for living room, kitchen, bedroom
✅ Works with LED, mood lights and smart lighting
✅ Also available as a touch dimmer with WiFi or Zigbee
3. Use contrast as a stylistic device
White wall? Then choose a black or champagne-colored touch switch.
Black wall? Go for white glass.
The detail on the wall can determine the rhythm of your interior.
✅ Visible, but not flashy
✅ Suitable for Scandinavian, modern or industrial interiors
4. Make the kitchen smarter and cleaner
In the kitchen, touch controls are a godsend. No more greasy knobs, but a smooth surface that you operate with a light touch. Hygienic, practical, and stylish.
✅ Easy to clean
✅ Can be operated with wet hands
✅ Integrates perfectly into modern kitchens
5. Let your lighting move with your day
Automate your lighting with smart dimmers from Thorn. Set scenes for morning, evening, cooking, or relaxing. This way, your home adapts to your needs, without you having to constantly think about it.
✅ Controllable via app or wall
✅ Combine with schedules or motion sensors
6. Strengthen the unity in the home with consistent finishing
Make sure all your switches, dimmers, and outlets coordinate visually. Choose one style, one color, one line.
It gives peace. And you feel it.
✅ Thorn offers complete lines per color
✅ Standard sizes, so easy to replace
7. Start small – but start
You don't have to do everything at once. Start with one room. One wall. One switch. And see what happens.
Most Thornwood customers return. Not because they have to.
But because they want to extend the difference.
