    The bridge had that lush carpeted hotel lobby feel to it. Which is fine. By Picard's time ships like the Galaxy-class were about comfort and a pleasant work environment as much as they were about exploration and defense. The flagship of the Federation should ideally be warm and welcoming.

    Honestly I think it's more:
    In the 60s TV was on a 4:3 screen and the sets were designed an dressed for that situation.

    In the 80s when TNG hit; they were reusing the ST:TMP film sets (and even shooting some scenes with/in wide-screen format with an intent to crop to 4:3).

    But now, with HD/4K and everything in some form of wide-screen format. any modern production needs sets that accommodate, and look good in that format so yeah, all the sets are going to be larger in scope to fill the screen.

    I think I've read something to that effect from a producer.

    “We were all of the mind that the Enterprise is a star of the show,” Lee explains. “It’s a major player. It’s an actor, really." ;)

    If I have a issue with the SNW sets it wouldn't be so much the size but how many lights are everywhere on the ship. Discovery is basically pitch black and with SNW everything is lit like a Christmas Tree. Do you really need light fixtures in the steps on the bridge and transporter pad? It seems fine to have some walls that isn't carrying a light fixture or computer panel.

    Yes, they need it. How else can they show that they are on a real starship and not a constructed set?
