I think you're right about the old scars giving the place character. I noticed the dark gray walls in those first couple of pictures and thought they looked cool. But I didn't realize the significance until you mentioned that they were fire-scorched. That made them feel all the more meaningful.
I think there may be a spiritual message hidden in there.
Thank you for sharing!
I think that is exactly th point. Thy could clean it an fill up th gaps. But then nobody would ask.
I like that they kept it this way.
