A look at the first 2-story bridge in Star Trek. Assumedly the bridge of a Section 31 ship.

It's like those complaining that the sets on Discovery looked too much like the Kelvin sets. The only thing they have in common is a window viewscreen.
agreed. there are some materials that are similar and lighting schemes, but the kelvin timeline films are largely neo-futurist, whereas (i think) discovery has more of a modernist look to it.
 
I think he was referring to the S31 uniforms
Pretty much.

Not a big fan of Michael Kaplan's design aesthetic in ST09 and STID.

I think one of the best parts of Kelvin timeline was Kaplin’s reimagined Starfleet uniforms. The Section 31 uniforms weren’t bad, but the others were great!
 
Eeesh. I haven't seen Into Darkness since it was in the theater. The DSC look is a lot better than this.
i think if you accept that a covert ops organization has its own uniforms and tech, then the into darkness ones are superior given that they don’t look like bond villain attire. section 31 doesn’t think it’s the bad guys, so why not dress them more like a regular starfleet crew? it’s never been made clear if the uniforms in the kelvin timeline were specific to each individual ship, but at least the ones in into darkness look like they could be in use aboard another starfleet vessel and not tailored to look eeeeeevillllllll.

Intellectually, I understand that and you're not wrong. But I still think they look dorky. I like the leather look.
 
I always wanted to see a 2-story Trek bridge. But i want it bigger - like The Black Hole ridiculously, impractically bigger.
Looks a bit like the Vengeance. Amazing how a show set in the Prime timeline keeps looking more and more like the Abrams films.
Nothing wrong with taking inspiration from the movies. Considering Kurtzman was instrumental in the plot and John Eaves the look, it was to be expected that Disco-31 resemble Star Trek Into Darkness.
 
Heck, TNG was pretty influenced by what the four films had brought, with guys like Probert and Okuda coming directly off of them.
 
Given that she if from the mirror universe it makes sense for it to be dimly lit.

Looks like an engineering set to me.
