Design meets Function with Power Controls

December 10, 2019

When design meets function with power controls, your home looks and works better. 

I will say it again and again but I get ecstatic when design and function are combined. I love styling beautiful spaces but if it isn’t functional, it just doesn’t work for most families including mine. That’s why I am so thrilled with the Legrand Products. This is truly when design meets function with power controls to create stylish yet practical solutions. 

This post is sponsored by Legrand but all thoughts, styling and opinions are my own.

Recently, I decided to paint over our stone backsplash with some black paint. I am soooo not regretting that decision because it just looks so sleek. The black creates a dramatic backdrop and really updated the traditional stone.

With that change, this partnership arrived at the perfect time. The old power controls including all the outlets and light switches were all previously white. Okay technically it was off white because over the years, it has become slightly yellow and dingy.

Since the backsplash was painted black, the previous switches and outlets stood out like a sore thumb. Legrand came to the rescue with black outlets and switches! They are known for modern lighting and power controls which include USB outlets, wireless chargers, nightlights and switches. The products all fit into existing electrical boxes. You can easily do this over the weekend to update your room’s design and elevate the overall aesthetic of your home.

I love that most of the switches and outlets came in black which blended into my new backsplash so beautifully. In the kitchen, I always tried to hide the outlets with frames but now, you can’t even really tell that they are there!

Jimmy turned off the circuit breakers and we unscrewed everything off the walls. Do not skip this step unless you feel like getting electrocuted that day. :0

Remember how I painted my dining room walls black? Look how the new light switch blends in!! Such a small thing that brings me great joy!

One of my favorite things about this product is that they have no screws visible as they are screwless plates. They also come in a few other finishes like metallic or just plain white.

That one used to be the previous yellow 3 switch plate!

Doesn’t that just look so good? I no longer need to hide them.

You can’t even see the outlets in most areas unless you see the cord. Unfortunately, we can’t always hide those!

Jimmy also installed a night light version upstairs in the hall. You can turn it off just by pushing the light. It’s so darn convenient!

Our favorite item has to be this wireless charger. It doesn’t come in black but the clean design doesn’t bother me. With the growing demand for faster-charging capabilities, the Ultra-Fast USB Outlet allows users to charge their devices up to 40 percent faster than average.

It works with Qi-enabled phones, and includes two traditional outlets and a USB port to offer additional power options. The USB port is super convenient and it charges our phones so much faster than using the traditional outlet.

The wireless chargers can be utilized in all rooms. It’s super convenient to use in the kitchen and bedroom as the radiant Wireless Charger instantly provides a convenient, clutter-free charging station. This makes it perfect for clearing space on counters and nightstands. I am so happy that my kitchen desk has been cleaner these days. 

All of these products have very high reviews and I can see why. It has totally elevated our kitchen. It helped clear clutter off the desk, charges our phones efficiently and upgraded the overall aesthetic of our spaces. That is a total design win in my book! I wasn’t paid to say anything as these were given to me but I have to say that they are definitely worth it. 

I hope you found this post helpful. Lmk if you have any questions! Finding amazing new products like LeGrand really gets me excited and they would make the perfect Christmas gifts. 

xoxo,
