Beautifully Simple. Exposing the essence of the space with no distractions or complications. I can feel the architecture in here. There's a message behind this design intention, and I'd like to hear different interpretations and readings.
Interior Design by Eldridge Smerin Architects
"Do you dream of a living space entirely free of distractions? This inspired interior design from Eldridge Smerin Architects is totally free from unnecessary complications.

At a first glance, the place seems soothing...but the more I imagine myself in such a setting, the more 'noisy' it becomes which leads to what Deema mentioned in the previous comment where people will have to 'adapt' to the plain white walls
There is a reason why people gravitate, or are more comfortable in a 'lived in' space where ideas could easily flow...that is not the case here
It Really seems serene, kind of looks like a garage makeover :P
The orange cushions are a nice touch though, cuz they seem to absorb the light.
