The indoors aesthetics of sci-fi spaceships are really a topic that has not been studied enough. I loved it when Mass Effect series went full hard into captain's quarters customisation and I was like "ooh! aah!"
I've found that I really enjoy it in sci-fi when ships are designed to be comfortable. In TNG, the Enterprise is like one gigantic carpeted lounge.
I've gotten a little bored of the whole spartan, exposed metal, tubes, and access panels aesthetic. If humans get to the point that we're building starships for people to live on, we would probably try make them comfortable.
I like both the clean, comfortable, luxury of the Enterprise or an Imperial Battle Cruiser, but at the same time I also love dirty, rugged, lived-in, utilitarian designed ships like Firefly or Farscape. In reality, I think there would be both. The rich people would have the former, while the not so rich would have the latter.
