About the project
We are delighted to introduce to you our universal line of plastered switches, called MATĀ. Grown with respect for tradition and craftsmanship, MATĀ combines the beauty of wall finishes with architectural simplicity in a timeless manner. MATĀ was born from a gratifying collaboration between SUMUM and STRAF. The word MATĀ originates from the Māori. Indigenous people of the mainland of New Zealand use it to refer to a 'bullet', which describes the form of the fine design of the buttons.
