Progress as tradition As a pioneer of his time, Albrecht Jung created the basis for the JUNG success story with the founding of the company in 1912 and the development of his pull switch with 1/8 rotation. The original motivation remains the driving force for all products to this day: JUNG develops and produces timelessly designed products and future-oriented solutions with pioneering spirit. As a premium supplier of modern building technology, the portfolio of the traditionalmedium-sized company includes switches, sockets, dimmers, observers and systems for controlling functions.

Colour keyboards Le Corbusier is considered to be one of the most important architects of the 20th century. The colour scheme of buildings and the effect of colour were just as important for him as the layout or the form. And so he created a colour system over decades that is still unique to date. Villa la Roche, Paris © FLC The Polychromie Architecturale is based on the artistic selection of pigments and the repetition of a few primary colours. All 63 colours are natural colours and as such are consistently harmonious. Further information about the keyboards of the colours can be found a...

32040 VERT ANGLAIS, BACKGROUND 32041 VERT ANGLAIS CLAIR The 1931 colour palette includes 43 colours in 14 series. Each series consists of one solid colour and up to four graduated brightenings. The English green. Reminiscent of aristocracy as well as of freshness of the forest. The original coding of the Le Corbusier colours starts constantly with “32xxx” – the series are identified by the last three digits. In order to recognise his own affinities and select individual preferences, Le Corbusier created twelve additional colour keyboards. They have names like Space, Sky, Velvet or Landscape...

In 1959 Le Corbusier expanded the Polychromie Architecturale with 20 more intense colours and an additional colour keyboard. Le Corbusier's extraordinary experience as an architect and painter is also reflected in this combination of colourful and achromatic shades and different brightness values. 4320M LE RUBIS, BACKGROUND 4320O GRIS CLAIR 59 The ruby.

History meets modernity The Andrea Marcante and Adelaide Testa duo of architects has created a totally unique spatial structure within the existing building. In the process they have not interfered with what was already there. Instead they have successfully continued their own approach, in response to the location. The classic LS 990 switch design from JUNG, in various Les Couleurs® Le Corbusier colours, proves an ideal extension to the design concept of the building – emphasising its individual mix of traditionally historic and sternly modern components.
