Panoramas of Enterprise interior on official site

The "white walls with black trim" approach was very popular in the early-to-mid-1970s to represent "futuristic." It stuck around until 1979, when "Alien" broke the mold (and even then, only partially... look at the wardroom, the "Mother chamber," or the hypersleep chamber... the same white-with-black-trim-and-blinky-lights approach) and created a new paradigm (industrial) that stuck around, largely unchallenged, until TNG came along, and was blended with the TNG style for "The Phantom Menace."
Ooookay. There seems to be very little to go on, but you may be right.
Not very Star Trek. Very 2001 Space... Lame.
I agree not only that there must be some logic to the wall labels, but also that, in the real world, they seem too cryptic to be of much use.
The overall corridor designs have that uber-clean, generic sci-fi feel that I haven't seen since the Blockade Runner corridors were recreated for Revenge of the Sith. I like 'em.

Now what I'm wondering, is where this corridor plays into the overall scheme of things.
*Was a hidden picture on the construction website.
Is this picture showing an unfinished corridor without the finishing panels? - I tend to doubt since the structural supports seem to have built-in lighting that any panels would cover up.
Or could it be that depending on what section you're in, the design aesthetic could change. This "unfinished" corridor could actually be in/near an engineering/mechanical section, and the new one we've see in the trailer, and now updated website, could be in/near sickbay.

Good question. ^ Inside the Kelvin?
Doubtful, since the website seemed to very specific in regards to the web address - http://www.ncc-1701.com
What's with the turbolift alcove frame? I could understand it's logic if it was meant to evoke the hexagonal door frames that Jefferies was fond of, but this shape just looks strange when it sits next to everything else.
As for the set design itself, it's not a bad look, and it's certainly a welcome direction change from "brooooooooooooooooooding darkness," but I have to wonder why people still insist on backlit floors and wasteful lighting design, especially considering that the set is almost entire white.

Kinda like they took the 22nd century NX-style Starfleet design aesthetic and sexed it up for a new generation and its crews. I can see this fitting into a Starfleet design evolution from the Archer period to the movies.
Well then, if its web address is to be taken as point of fact then the only conclusion can be it is "A" 1701.
The Original 1701 before the timeline changes, (TM) is my guess.
He won't be saying that, when Scotty dons his tartan dress uniform...
KIRK:"WHOA.
Nice buffalo shot there, Scotty. Want to run a dermal laser on that sucker before it eats us all alive?"
Or something the Emperor would build. Looks like we are getting "Star Wars Trek"

The Reboot Side is strong in Lord Abrams. A great disturbance in the fanbase I sense.
PEGG/SCOTTY: "Garghhhh, yerrrr minge muncher... tis nothin' but wha God gave me!"

Since they said the engineering decks on the Enterprise look much different than the saucer, it could be the engineering hall. Supposedly engineering looks a lot more gritty and primitive for some reason.
Though that hallway is curved, so it could be the Kelvin maybe.
Humm...I think it looks pretty cool!
