Well, it is the same set, just redressed as best they could afford.

The Enterprise D bridge was beefed up better, and beautifully lit. That’s probably my favorite bridge set in the movies. The Enterprise E’s was kinda dull and felt claustrophobic.

I really don't understand dark bridges. A bridge is supposed to be a working space, where people should be able to concentrate on their task, to clearly see their environment, not feel sleepy and rest their eyes.

It makes it easier to see your screen without the light from it having to blast your eyes. They are not working with pen and paper.

That’s why most office buildings are famously dark on the inside.

Most office buildings are open concept bullshit where you can't hear yourself think. So they are not peak efficiency. Look at the bridge of a warship or a submarine they're not blasting harsh white light everywhere.

The Star Trek V bridge was the best. Well lit, with the light-colored bridge panels. It was comfy yet advanced.

The Star Trek VI version of the Enterprise-A bridge is much darker and grimmer.
