CHOOSE YOUR OWN STYLE!

VELA: CHOOSE HOW
YOU WANT TO BE

A CHOICE OF 2 SWITCHES
The switch has its part to play too. And with Vela, it’s not just an electrical
component any more, but a real aesthetic touch, like an accessory.
It is available in the Anthracite and Shiny White versions: two elegant and
attractive colours for you to match with your own style.

3 FORMS OF COVER PLATE TO CHOOSE

FROM
Walking the path of your taste is an art. It’s a way of adapting every detail to
your own personality. Tonda, Quadra and Basic: select the shape to suit your
lifestyle.

26 DIFFERENT FINISHES AND MATERIALS

A detailed approach to details. Now you can choose exactly the right cover
plate for your taste, with the shade of colour and type of material that you
like best: surface and light effects, with materials which are sensational to the
touch.
A style for every space.

LIMITLESS COMBINATIONS AND

POSSIBILITIES
The only limit now is your imagination, your thirst for the original.
With Legrand, the combination of switches, colours and forms is a matter of
choice: YOURS.
Inspiration with you in mind,
in harmony with your lifestyle,
reflecting your taste.

INTENSE COLOUR

If you love contrasts and bright colours...

...surround yourself with colour.
Bright, positive tones to energize every space.
Bold hues, vibrant personalities and bright surfaces with their play of light,
for those who prefer contrast to consistency.
The power of colour becomes an integral part of your home and defines its
character.

5
6
Lively tones for modern,
creative spaces.
A splash of colour for vibrant, dynamic
environments. The luminous materials
evoke glass-like effects, for a perfect
combination with fresh design that’s
bursting with personality. The lively
tones can offer a contrast to enrich sober
and minimalist spaces, or add emphasis
to fashionable and original interior
decoration.

7
8
 REFLEX
LIGHT COLOUR

Delicate nuances, gentle moods.

Softness on the eye.
A pastel embrace for your space with delicate, shimmering
reflections. For a soft, velvet atmosphere, where the dreamy
and the material coexist in perfect harmony. For an unhurried,
soothing space, where you are in your element.

9
10
Soft, delicate colours for a
sophisticated home.
Subtle tones for ready co-ordination with the
more widely used interior decoration colours,
thanks to the easy-to-combine shades and the
pastel hues evoking the gleam of glass. Devised
for soft-style environments, where the colour
combinations are intended not to dazzle but to
create a sense of harmony between the various
components of the interior.

11
12
TECHNICAL WOOD

Technical style, natural elegance.

Rigorous, contemporary originality .
Natural impressions transform into objects, details and colours.
Let the evocation and interpretation of wood weave its magic
into your living space. The geometrical interplay makes the
room come alive .

13
14
The feel of wood, for
essential and rational
furnishing styles.
Original pastel finishes bring out the sensory
feel and grain of the wood.
Technical design and “natural” elegance
combine to enrich furnishings featuring a
minimalist, geometric use of wood. The
confident, essential lines unite beauty and
utility, as with traditional Scandinavian
design.

15
16
 SHINY

Life and soul with technological detailing.

Sensuous and luminous effects. Winning lines and technological ideas
combining with premium design. The technical dimension also acts as
a decorative detailing feature, to fill your environment with sparks of
modernity. Let its magnetic fascination and dynamism bring your world
to life in a truly original way.

17
18
The touch of verve in a
youthful house.
Two solutions made of satin-finish brushed
metal in brilliant gold and aluminium
colours. For spaces combining a
predominantly technological aesthetic with a
refined, insouciant ambience.
They lend themselves to a modern, youthful
décor marked by leading edge design,
yet their rounded form also works well in
classical, less stylised environments.
