As long as the Decora is at either end you have options in plastic. I haven’t seen anything with Decora in the middle, though. You could always go for the Decora toggle inserts but that may not look good.

Virtually positive that you will not find that oddball pattern in any sort of plastic wall plate.

I thought maybe Mulberry may possibly have something in their plastic line but it doesn't appear so. We've used them to make non-standard custom wall plates over the years but they've always been painted metal even though our customer was dead set on plastic or thermo-plastic or even nylon.

This might be a job for 3D printing, however, the finish might not be up to snuff.

Just buy the decora to toggle adapter inserts and use a standard decora plate...

This would be the best way. Then if and when you can add lighting control it’s much easier

This is the EASIEST answer. No brainer.
