In an Artistic perspective, the view is static and devoid of energy……an Artistic perspective does not concern itself with the viewers participation in it, but instead appeals to a viewers sense of aesthetics…It seeks to convey a scene as pleasurable through things like composition and color…The viewer is able to appreciate the view without becoming invested in it.
An Artistic perspective can be achieved by:
1. Not including animate objects…scale is achieved through other readily identifiable objects.
2. Traditional artistic principles such as balanced composition, color, pattern, texture, etc….the viewers eyes are pulled from point to point throughout the view, not limited to any one portion….
3. Primary and secondary focal points, i.e. tub vs. urinal, give the viewer something to study in depth, without providing a “visual vacuum”…..multiple focal points can play off of one another……

hmmm
I am not sure the shots are as thoughtfully composed or orchestrated as you allude. I think any shot without any animate object would fulfill this. It is essentially a placeholder. Everywhere else you are focused on the houseguests.
I was speaking in more specific terms..... the example I used seemed to me to be intentionally composed, but certainly any image that does not contain animate objects would not fall into the "artistic" category.... and yes, they are definitely placeholders, especially considering the context
