Wouldn't a decorative tile cover been easier?

OK, how about using one of the high end, color devices that 'match' the green tiles?

I think flat decora switches & recepts would've looked cleaner than the toggles  PS these devices look new, is there a GFI in the mix someplace? And agree'd, premium craftsmanship, just that darn accessibility code thingy...

It's hard enough to get someone to cut that neatly around boxes.

Wow, it would look better with GFCI/Decora devices Haha. But seriously, it must be impossible to access those boxes.

You've got to appreciate the workmanship.

Would be nice if some plate manufacturer would make custom sizes (larger than the minimum covering needed) and custom colors (send in a color sample to match). With some alignment work (devices centered in the tile positions) you could have plates that match the tiles, but meet the requirement for being removable to access the devices. Having the plates listed might be harder to do.

Having the plates listed might be harder to do. Many wallplates are available in midway and oversize sizes. As far as custom colors go, that would be insanely expensive in a molded wallplate, and merely prohibitively expensive in a painted metal plate.
