I’m a firm believer in making every word count. If I find a place in my manuscript where I’ve got a detail that doesn’t really matter (like the specific layout of a random room), I’ll trim it or try to find a way to make it matter. The last thing I want to do is bog down my readers by worrying if they’re picturing the table to the right of the window that’s to the right of a statue. There’s just a table and a window and a statue, and all of them should matter or else they get axed. Same for experiencing through a character’s senses. I generally prefer this over info-dumpy descriptions, but it all depends on how it’s done. For example, the scent of pine in the air is far better than describing pine trees.
