Nobody remembers the finish.
They remember what a room did to them.
We've had clients describe a finished project without even mentioning a single material.
They say, we sleep differently in that bedroom.
We feel calmer the moment we walk in.
We always end up in that corner, and we don't know why.
This is what atmosphere does.
It changes behavior quietly, and it is the hardest thing to show in a render or to put a price on.
The room they remember is never the most expensive one.
It is the one that felt most like them.
