Dollhouse set= Wolfram & Hart?

[Vergon6]

I was watching the second episode tonight (I watched the third episode when it aired) and I realized how much the Dollhouse set, at least the main lobby looked an awful lot like an expanded version of the Wolfram & Hart set from Season 5 of Angel. Now I know it's been a few years since Angel was on the air, so I imagine the set would have been torn down and destroyed (rather than stored). But does anybody else see this? Is it possible they had some of the set still? Or is that they used the same set designers?

I noticed the similarities too.

Maybe Joss just liked the design of the W&H set, so he had DH's set designers make a similar one?

Yeah it is a little similar in terms of colours, the open plan hallways, the staircase in the middle of a big room etc. I actually like that it reminds me off it though :)

Yeah, I think regardless of it any of it is reused or not, Joss and the others probably thought that set was good to film on (as opposed to the Hyperion Hotel set, which was apparently difficult to film in), so they modeled it off it. I like that it reminds me of the old set too.
