Perhaps they think that people may have been prepared to meet in a glorified warehouse when they believed the end was near, but when your prophecies keep failing and it looks like you're in for the long haul you'd better make the place of worship a bit more pleasant.
They should have a stained glass window of the Pyramid of Geza, and maybe CTR and Rutherford resurrecting the ancient worthies. That would be awesome.

I worship in churches with stained glass windows, superb architecture, organs, incense. You see God's glory. I never heard anyone say that they could not read or listen to a sermon b/c of the art. The art is there to offer up to God. We all know why the Society wants stripped down KH. All thee frou frou churchitems cost a fortune. People donate for generations. Bethel wants its money. Also, it takes some time to appreciate art. Witnesses are not art museum types.
Like the wt promises, it leaves a lot to desired, and the illumination is artificial like the old faded, never really new light. It lacks the full spectrum of reality, When its a clear day OUTSIDE and the refinery next door, the highway in front dont pollute too much.
