In the same way that the 1966 TARDIS replica had been repurposed for the ?th Doctor's TARDIS, the console room built for http://tardisbuilders.com/index.php?topic=6489 has been repurposed for the Console Room, with the http://tardisbuilders.com/index.php?topic=4782.0 console prop.

Oh you sexy thing.  :D

I know it's blasphemy for me to say it, but if they'd had the budget and the conceptual mind for it... This set is how the set in 1963 should've looked. :)

On a design note, I'm really feeling a 70s Baker Console Room vibe with that doorway with the recessed roundels:

I was thinking Mike Tucker's season 27 concept myself! DcgjJhfWkAAXNnf.jpg

AWESOME. Where are these from? Can we expect any more?

I'm liking the look of the room, although it does feel a little small. I'm guessing the recessed/hidden doors was convenience so they didn't have to do interior doors?
The whole roundels and light and flooring combo is nice, and if you put an updated console in there I'd love it! Maybe something like the Pickwoad/'Toyota' console, but with a classic style rotor instead of the whirlygig? Just to look a little newer than the (admittedly iconic) Brachacki levers and switches.

All-in-all, with the exception of the console, it looks very much like something that might have been designed for, say, season 27?
A mixed-up non-conformist, trying to fit in.

Sorry to disagree Kingpin but, this isn't a re-purposed "Hell Bent" interior but rather appears to have been constructed from elements retained from both "An Adventure in Space and Time" and "Twice Upon A Time". In Hell Bent the roundels were too small resulting in the doors being too short for Peter Capaldi to walk through. Here the roundels are the 'correct' diameter and are 'correctly' spaced in a close-knit honeycomb pattern.

Whilst the screen shots aren't particularly clear, the PVC roundel backings in some of the walls appear to have the stepped "bucket" detailing (characteristic of An Adventure In Space and Time), others appear to have flat roundel backings (characteristic of Twice Upon A Time). Furthermore, if Simon83's renders are correct, then there are two sets of main/zig-zag doors present - one set presumably from AAIS&T and the other from Twice (N.B., the AAIS&T walls were - like the console - retained by Cardiff's Dr Who Experience and clearly the console is still in storage so, why not the walls?).

From what I can see, the hexagonal ceiling unit too bears a much closer resemblance to the one from "Twice" than the one from "Hell Bent". This unit may, too, have been retained.....

So, these are the elements that I think have been re-used and - briefly - where I think they have come from.

I think it's also worth mentioning the lighting - I liked the 'in-flight' effect of alternating how the the roundels were lit i.e., either from the front or from behind (that lighting effect put me in mind of the Tardis' first take-off as seen in the 1963 Pilot Episode).

All in all, I actually quite like this version of the Tardis interior. :)

So, all of time and space, everything that ever happened or ever will, where do you want to start?

I'm sorry but you will not beat the look of a classic console room!! This is so good on every level. I love the floor also with its grills as it makes it more filmic if that makes sense. The roundels are so iconic that they should never have really been dropped.
I love the hell bent console room but this just tips it. And I'm sure we'll see more of it too. I'm guessing and calling it a 6b console room?...

Lighting gives vibes of Daryl Joyce:

This may sound a little mad... But I firmly believe that this is The Rani pretending to be The Doctor.

Love the new Console room though!!

Hi Tony!

I thought they were repurposed Hell Bent walls and doors as well - mainly because the main doors look so small; however Matt Saunders confirmed over on GB that when he was in the art department the Hell Bent walls could no longer be found. He thinks there the ones from Twice Upon A Time as well as the ceiling unit.

I bloody love this set - more so than the current regular one!

I do love this console, this is exactly what I would think of if someone said "a modernized classic interior".

superrichi1a

Not to state the obvious, but my favourite things are the pillars. They're exactly the same shape as the ones in the Tennant console room, from head to toe, which I love, and yet they still fit!

Very subtle design there, one which is a really nice little continuity feature.

This is my favourite TARDIS design in a very, very long time!
Isn't it how ironic that we have to think of solutions out of the box, in order to build our boxes a lot of the time?

Interesting difference in the ceiling central arrangement between these two pictures - the reveal of the mesh surround with what looks like plates that separate it from the main inner ring.

It looks like they hadn't finished it before taking the left picture. If you count the inner rings, the meshed one is the outer layer.. unless I've lost the ability to count.
