Forbes and Lomax

Forbes and Lomax is an established switches and sockets designer brand, the makers of the Invisible Lightswitch. The company was established in 1987 and their approach to switches and sockets was from an aesthetic point of view.

They make all the popular switches, sockets, data outlets, BT phone sockets, dimmers, and dolly switches, and their finishes are parallel to none. 

Among the finishes manufactured by Forbes and Lomax you can find the Invisible plate (transparent perspex plates), the unlacqured brass plate, the aged brass plate, the brushed brass plate, the antique bronze plate, the Verdigris plate, the Nickel Silver plate, the Stainless Steel plate, and the Painted plate.

The elegant glass, nicke, and brass switches from the 1930's are no longer available and their modern equivalent are not suitable for the prestigious projects that interior designers are working with.

So Forbes & Lomax launched "the invisible lightswitch" - a toggle switch on a transparent acrylic plate that allows the wallpaper or the paint to be seen through.
