Cheap Homey clones for sale!
I was just in a store here in the Netherlands where they had dozens of cheap Homey-like devices for sale. They're dirt cheap, a lot cheaper than the real Homeys. I've bought and tested one and it works great, even better than the real Homey at the moment! And best of all they have loads of these for sale RIGHT NOW. I guess with all the delays and the software bugs Athom really missed a golden opportunity; but now you can buy yourself your own Homey for next to nothing, and it does a wonderful job, especially considering the price!
Check it out, I took a picture;

What is the name of the store where you found those homey clones?
Could use that cassing for a little project
Zotac mini pc case https://www.zotac.com/nl/product/mini_pcs/zbox_o_series
Or an other home automation Kickstarter project: Branto
This looks more like the Lidl air freshener.
Seems like this two shapes covers the whole industry. I would also go with matt black. The LED ring would be a statement. AV units are black, it would blend in nicely. If you paint it please let us know your findings. I have no idea what is the best paint for ASA plastic.
You don't like it, just peel it off and try another color
