Touch control in the kitchen: why we never want to be without it again
The kitchen is one of the busiest rooms in the house. It's where we cook, catch up, have breakfast, and often even end our day. But it's also the room where everything quickly gets dirty. Greasy fingers. Splatters on the wall. Fumbling with knobs.
And then suddenly you realize how important it is that switching material cooperates.
Do not oppose.
When we switched to touch control from Thorn , supplied by Thornwood , something fundamental changed.
Not just on the wall, but in how we use the kitchen.
From awkward to intuitive
Our old switch was right next to the counter. Every time we tried to adjust the light with wet or greasy hands, it was a hit. Swipe. Click. Click again. Sometimes the light was way too bright, sometimes just too dim. It was especially frustrating while cooking.
Now? One tap. Even with your pinky. And the light dims as we wish.
With Thorn's smart touch dimmers :

We switch the light on with one touch
-
We dim smoothly from bright to soft

The kitchen as a design space
Besides functionality, we noticed something else: the touch dimmer made the kitchen more attractive. We chose champagne-colored glass . Warm. Elegant. And a perfect match for our gold-colored kitchen handles.
The switching point no longer became a disturbing element – but rather a part of the design.
From practical space to stylish living space
We now see our kitchen differently. No longer just as a functional space. But as a space that contributes to the ambiance. In tranquility. In style.
And that's how it started:
One replacement. One touch dimmer. One difference you'll feel every day.
