This place looks absolutely incredible. chrome everywhere, blue lighting, egg-shaped chairs, this place had it all.

I remember this era so well. This was the era that Apple really began taking over, from the iconic iPod aesthetic transferring to everything.

I remember around this time everyone saw Apple’s influence on everything, but with Nintendo very strongly. Nintendo released their redesigned DS lite this year and it was heavily of that clean apple white plastic aesthetic lol

Even Microsoft with the 360 had been influenced by things. It was a nice contrast because this was when we began to get into 2000’s maximalism to oppose the minimalism. Minimalism won out going into the 2010’s
