USS Enterprise (eventually) on Discovery?

I do like this take on the classic tos
I like the insides of the Enterprise a lot more than the uninspired outsides. But when they go to red alert, it turns into a nightclub, which is not entirely a bad thing.
(Where is the Travolta, Saturday Night Fever emoticon?)
I think most of the saucer windows on the model, including the ones on the bridge superstructure on deck 2 (deck 1, now?) were replaced by DSC-style rabbit-tooth windows. There are a few circular ones, but I'm not sure if there are any pairs that close to each other. I can't be sure if there's not a third window, though, in which case it might be the three at the very forward of the saucer, though the windows look a little small to be those.
Well, its not the first time the windows didn't match up with the sets, and it won't be the last.
It’s all pretend. All make believe.
Producers are asking us to pretend this was the bridge that Kirk would/will inherit. And I think they've done a grand-enough job that I’m able to imagine that if we were to remake TOS today it would look like this (no offense).

They need the extra room to hide the alcohol...
How dull is your crew if you need that many red lights for them to know they're in a dangerous situation?
Yeah no. Them using footage from 'The Cage' tells us otherwise. This is a visual reboot.

Lets see, aliens, different visual spectrums, people working at different areas of a large workspace that need something in everyones field of view at a given time...
Yep. CBS does not care about keeping the visual continuity from TOS in anything but a tributary way.
It's because CBS isn't dumb
If they can't see red, then more red isn't going to help them.
A consistent level around their work area will though. I've worked in offices that used LED systems around very large open plan spaces to create consistent levels during different parts of the day.
Typical human centrism though...
Nah, it'll be like that Black Mirror episode, where a panel swings around and there's a cabinet.
Is that a reimagined NX-01 painting? Or is it a weird angle on the 1701 which makes it look like it's just nacelles and a saucer?I have one tiny nitpick, but it's not about the bridge. I always assumed that the briefing room in WNMHGB was on deck 2 at the center of the saucer. Now it has two round portholes that suggest it's somewhere much lower in the saucer, and not centered. This seems odd to me for a circular room.
It looks really nice though.
How was using footage from the Cage saying otherwise? There was a refit between Cage and Disc, and another one between Disc and TOS...
You don't have to like the idea, but to conclusively say something against visual video evidence just seems very odd.

Should have been Black Alert and they could all have played Pin the Tail on the Donkey in the dark.
It's a very awkward angle painting of the 1701 made worse by the fish eye effect of the camera trying to take in the entire room.
So they turned it back to the way it looked 10 years before? (the previously on used Season 1 footage for the exterior of the Enterprise, not 'The Cage') How does that make sense?
The saucer edge has the rabbit tooth windows, but I think there are some round windows just above the sensor dome that could be close enough together to be the briefing room.
I'm pretty sure it's just a weird angle. An NX-01 painting would be great though.
