Several decades ago there were single pushbutton "decorator" on/off

The button was about 1-1/4" in diameter and the wall plate was transparent,
allowing for anything that matched the wall to be inserted; e.g.,
wallpaper, a paintable insert, etc. *

I've got one of those in a room in my house. I can see why they are no
longer made. It's a pretty stupid idea for the most part.

The only time it worked to my advantage is when I had too much
furniture in there and had to set shelves in front of the switch. You
bumped the shelves as you walked in the room and the light came on.
Pretty neat.
