Symmetrical, yellow/mustard tinted room, a warmth that surrounds it with small lights

I thought I could imitate how Wes Anderson expresses this particular welcoming, yet unfamiliar atmosphere.

I wanted to give my work a 70s feel and I thought I could reference photographers from that era. Meryl Meisler had witty yet powerful photography and this collection Paradise & Purgatory: SASSY '70s Suburbia was very helpful for me to visualise what I can do.
