A question of style

All Art critics,
I have a new deck plan but a few questions.
* Should a deck plan have large machinery in the engineer spaces or is a note that this room is engineering good enough?
* How about the Low Berth room? a note or filed with symbols?
* Is a deck plan better with a numbered key or with labels?

I have been doing deck plans for 40 years and I must say I have for most of that time done plans with equipment other furnishings, but I am not sure.

On the first one there is a transparency of more than half.

I liked the transparency, as it addresses some of the complaints of a cluttered deck plan, but still shows what the free space is actually like.

OK, back to the original question:
Is this more like what most people want?

That looks nice.

A photo from my trip to Chile last year -- Project Cybersyn (wikipedia):

Photo credit: own work. Taken inside the Centro Cultural Palacio de La Moneda ("Palacio de La Moneda Cultural Center"). Turns out the exhibit technically wasn't open at that time, but the door was ajar...

Looks like the space Hilton from 2001.

I also like the 50% transparency.
Another option is the same 50% transparency for things that can be moved (furniture) and no transparency for stuff that cannot be moved and is a fixture.

Regardless, I pretty much like all deck plans
