Liminal spaces are the subject of an Internet aesthetic portraying empty or abandoned places that appear eerie, forlorn, and often surreal. Liminal spaces are commonly places of transition (pertaining to the concept of liminality) or of nostalgic appeal.

Granted I’m only on the first episode, but it struck me as intentionally using liminal space almost constantly.

Its aesthetics are inspired among other things by the Backrooms, so yes, very intentional.

Very cool. I came at it from a completely uninformed perspective. I’m not sure that I’m into the storyline much, but I’m really digging the visuals.

If you quit watching for whatever reason . Check out season 2 episode 8 for a treat.
