If this was UK: white walls + cheap spotlights that point nowhere, tacky metal frames but thinner and black, smaller doors with stupid handles, no closet.
If this Germany: white walls + no ceiling fixtures, tacky metal frames but strong for some reason, clearly framed doors, wide light switches for fat people, no closet.
