I actually saw this room space in a surreal dream that I had, and tried to model it. This was rendered using global illumination.
As I walked by them in the dream, the drapes on the right in the scene fluttered, and they released quotes by William Blake. The room had extremely high, vaulted ceilings, and was intended to be a gallery within a skyscraper for viewing not only art displayed on the back wall, but to display the natural wonder of the vast skyline below, via huge picture windows braced with chrome supports.
Within the dream, as I entered the door at the far end of the room, the next room became a darkened, subterranean hallway with enormous, transluscent amphipods, swimming in the air. My perspective then changed to that of the amphipod itself, and then "I" swam down the tunnel and out of a door into a round African-style grass hut sitting on top of a brilliantly green grass hillside, with ripe strawberries strewn everywhere all over the ground.
I then flew straight up (as the amphipod) into space, and plummeted back down towards Earth. At this point, the approaching landscape looked like giant faces all mashed together, screaming at the sky, and covered in a layer of snow. I flew down into one of the mouths, and into the amphipod hallway, then woke up.
This is why I don't bother with drugs. My subconscious, dreaming mind can come up with super fun, bizarre enough scenarios all on it's own, thanks. I highly recommend training yourself in lucid dreaming. Makes every night deeply entertaining. Carpe noctum!
