FIG. 1 is a front view of a flush-mount faceplate.

FIG. 2 is a rear view thereof.

FIG. 3 is a left side view thereof; the right side view would be a mirror image thereof (with some small variation due to the configuration of the break lines) and is thus not separately shown.

FIG. 4 is a top view thereof; the bottom view would be a mirror image thereof and is thus not separately shown.

FIG. 5 is an isometric view thereof.

FIG. 6 is a front view thereof in an in-use state with a smartglass controller shown mounted therewith; and,

FIG. 7 is an isometric view thereof in the in-use state of FIG. 6 .

The broken lines in FIGS. 1-5 illustrate portions of the flush-mount faceplates which form no part of the claimed design. In FIGS. 6 and 7 , the broken lines illustrate portions of the flush-mount faceplates or a smartglass controller usable therewith which form no part of the claimed design. The flush-mount faceplate is shown with a symbolic break in its length; the symbolic break is also indicated by a bracket in each Figure. The appearance of any portion of the article between the break lines forms no part of the claimed design.

Stipple shading is used to show surface contouring and is not indicative of surface texture. Dash-dot-dash boundary lines are used to indicate transitions between broken line/unshaded areas and solid line/shaded areas.
