The minute someone flicks that switch, you’re back in the Stone Age.
That’s exactly what happened at my place. I put in those color-changing bulbs, got all excited, and then my partner kept flipping the wall switch out of habit. Suddenly, no “scene” lighting, just darkness. I ended up swapping to smart dimmer switches instead—less flashy but way more practical with a house full of people who don’t care about tech routines. Honestly, unless everyone’s on board, it’s a losing battle.

Honestly, I think you made the right call. I’ve seen so many clients get excited about smart bulbs, only to run into the exact same issue—someone flips the switch and suddenly all that “smart” is gone. Have you noticed any difference in how people use the space now? Sometimes the simplest solution is the one that actually gets used, even if it’s not as futuristic.
