colorful than Gaudi's buildings (these aliens cannot perceive colors) and less
threatening than Giger's artwork for the first Alien movie.

The design you proposed would fit extremely well for the aliens' modern style,
I think. If I did understand your description, the interior could look somewhat
like the interior of one of those old baroque theaters, with rows of boxes or
shelves around the interior wall, but made of a translucent glass-like material
- sounds fascinating.

You could watch Star Wars Episode 1 (if you can stand Jar Jar Binks long enough) and notice how the outsides of the Gungan buildings look. If I remember right, Jar Jar and the Jedis had to swim into the building where they met with the Gungan leader.

As far as interior is concerned, I don't really know what you could find. Hopefully this was at least a little help.
