You gotta have thermostats. They don't have to be boring.
When have you ever gone into a friend's house and said "Whoa! What a ugly thermostat!" When have you ever gone into a relatives house and said "Hey! I wish I had a thermostat like that!" The truth is you almost never even CARE about the thermostat, even in your own home. If there was a way to cover it with a painting and yell commands across the room like it was Siri who WOULDN'T take that option? Maybe some eccentric thermostat aficionado living just outside of London. Maybe.
The closest thing to an invisible thermostat is this Nest device right here. You can set up an auto-scheduling program to change as you like it, teaching Nest how it should handle things without you. You've got Auto-Away, so you're not having to heat and empty home. You've even got a remote app, so you can keep watching TV while pumping up the A/C.
If you put your Nest device in the right place, you can live 90% of your life without ever knowing you have one, and yet, when you do, you'll be impressed at how non-crappy it looks. It's a cool dial design, not some blocky pre-war style rectangle. It's modern and cool. Literally. It literally makes your house cooler on command.
You won't fall in love with it, because people don't fall in love with thermostats. But you'll wish sometimes that the world was different.
