Dimmer switches are an excellent addition to any lighting design plan for their ability to control the mood of any space in the house. Light dimmers enhance the aesthetics of interior environments, adding stunning dynamics to a room by allowing you to spotlight some spaces and mute the lighting in others, resulting in a layered effect.
Imagine a dinner party with five layers of light contributing to the sense of drama in the room or watching a film in the lounge room with lights dimmed low enough to eat without impacting the viewing or dining experience.

Very importantly, dimming helps you save energy. Dimmers range in size from small units to suit domestic light switches to high-power units used in theatrical and architectural lighting installations.
