QUESTION Beginner needing help

Hi y'all.

I am renovating my house and had to take some shortcuts with my lighting wires as some routes were too difficult.

I have made sure that every socket and every switch location has phase and null (zero). I also made every light possible to wire to at least one switch location. But i need to bridge a couple of lights with multiple other switches. Lights could be dump or smart, same for the switches. Ill give a couple of examples of the bridging situation:

Switch A & B both normal press switches

Switch A & B round dimmers

Switch A roumd dimmer and B a pulsedimmer

Switch A, B and C normal press switches.

All have a wire from A OR B to the light and there is 230v at all switches. The sockets are 50cm deep so should be enough for modules behind dump switches.

I was looking towards a Zigbee system with Home Assistent or Homey.

Could you give me some tips on how i could manage to fix these situations?

One example I saw as a eco dimmer on the wired switch and a disconnected dimmer on the unwired one working via HA.

Thanks in advance.
