These cute new faces of the Nest Learning Thermostat will turn your temperature controller into a work of art

• Google launched new faces for the Nest Learning Thermostat (4th generation)
• The highlight is a subtly animated botanical face that changes every month
• Faces are now available through your Nest thermostat’s settings menu.

Google has launched a new set of faces for the Nest Learning Thermostat (4th generation), with botanical illustrations and subtle animation to make the slim thermostat look like a piece of wall art.

The new faces are applied to the thermostat’s Farsight display, which displays when there is activity within a 20-foot radius. Once you move about 3 feet, the view switches to show the current target temperature, time, room temperature, analog or digital time and date, or weather depending on the settings you choose. Google’s support site gives a full description of how the system works.
