Trump is overcompensation incarnate
There are two features to like about that room. One is the symmetry, which (usually) gives a large room a pleasing aesthetic, although in this case it just doubles the ugly. The other being the view afforded by the picture windows, which at least gives an occupant somewhere to look to relieve the senses.
All-in-all, and in the spirit of a French artist*, it is a room that is better0 for being inside looking out than being outside looking in.
*His name escapes me, but it is said that this late 19thC artist dined in the then-new Eiffel Tower’s restaurant every night because, he said, it was the only decent restaurant in Paris that didn’t have a view of M. Eiffel’s monstrosity.
No one actually lives in a place like that. They reside there, show off there, and brag there. Living is impossible. Give me a comfortable room in earth tones with books on every wall, comfy overstuffed chairs, and reading lamps. A coffee table perhaps, and an old beat up rocker. And, of course, cat hair covering everything.

AoS: I think it is usually attributed to Guy de Maupassant. He certainly campaigned against the tower’s construction.
Ta!
