I concur slightly.
This set was in my view partially inspired by what was going on at the time in TC7 down in Television Centre. I think the Barcos and frosted glass design wasn't too bad to be honest and it looked reasonably modern-ish. The background colour was far worse when it launched in the short lived but very memorable era:

When the switch in colour of the background curtain ended up going from blue to red it went a bit of a way to make it look decent. The one thing that I do remember from way back in the Blue Place and agreed with was that the desk and "soft" areas needed to be on the TC7 style rostra 'Baking Trays' as I recall the nickname for them at the time.
