Product Story
The Studio line is a stylish, modern take on traditional round backplates. They’re steeped in industrial history, but glass fronts and silky matt rockers give the finish a luxurious feel. This is the black, flush-mounted version of the range. Please note that the “double” sockets are in fact two singles in a double frame and require specific back boxes.

The concept
Round and square, black and white: The Gira Studio line focuses on contrasts and takes inspiration from old-fashioned, industrial light switch designs. The round, high-gloss glass frame mirrors the ambient light beautifully without feeling too harsh with its curvy elegance.
As a surface-mounted variant in hard-working studios, workshops or stylish warehouse conversions, or as a flush-mounted version in modern living areas - it's a concept that works for a whole range of interiors.
The range
Surface-mounted or flush-mounted, the Studio range is all about high-quality glass on shatterproof thermoplastic. You can of course install it as single or multiple units as well. In the surface-mounted version, matching conduit can be connected and extended.
