12th doctor control room (BBC)

This control room was inherited by the Twelfth Doctor, (TV: The Time of the Doctor) who proceeded to upgrade the console room by adding several items to it, including a reclining chair, bookshelves, candles, chalkboards, an additional staircase to the upper level and circular lights around the lower balcony. He also changed the lighting of the time rotor and room from its original aqua to orange, creating an ambient glow that added warmth to the room. Overall, he gave the once empty and stark control room a homelike sense of decor, provision, and sophistication. (TV: Deep Breath) Bill Potts described it as "like a really posh kitchen". (TV: The Pilot) By contrast, the First Doctor disapproved of its aesthetic, calling it "a restaurant for the French". (TV: Twice Upon a Time)

The Twelfth Doctor later expanded his renovation of the control room further, adding glowing circles over the hexagonal roundels on the lower floor, echoing the circular roundels of his earlier control rooms. (COMIC: Day of the Tune, TV: The Magician's Apprentice)

The control room that Clara Oswald knew featured aqua/orange lighting and time rotor, blue Gallifreyan markings on the ceiling and above the time rotor, hexagonal roundels on the lower console level, and Gallifreyan markings on the top level. Several tiny lights went around the walls of the room in a straight line, flashing sections at a time. The console featured two screens, and what seemed to be a radar on one face. There were two additional consoles around the edge of the main level. It was also much darker than the previous iteration. Except for the time rotor, all lights could be turned off when the Doctor was not inside.

There were three levels: an upper balcony, which looked down over the console and had doorways off of it, the landing, which housed the console, seating, and main doors (TV: The Snowmen) and the lower level, which had several compartments, one of which contained clothing. The Eleventh Doctor assembled his new attire from the clothes held in this compartment. (TV: The Bells of Saint John) Another compartment allowed access to the Heart of the TARDIS and could expose objects placed in there to time winds. (TV: The Time of the Doctor) There were four doorways to other sections of the TARDIS, two on the upper level either side of the main doors, and two on the lower level. One of the compartments under the console contained a ladder leading to a lower part of the TARDIS whilst one of the roundels on the lower section of the wall opened to reveal a passageway that led to the engine room at the centre of the TARDIS. (TV: Journey to the Centre of the TARDIS)

This console room initially lacked a hatstand, a factor which even the Doctor hadn't noticed until asked about it by Clara. (TV: Hide) The Twelfth Doctor's redecorated console room once more included the hatstand, located on the lower level. (TV: Mummy on the Orient Express)

The console eventually sustained heavy damage following the Twelfth Doctor's explosive regeneration, scattering sparks from various control surfaces, and even allowing a portion of the central console to separate from the time rotor. Such extensive damage to the control room made the TARDIS tip onto its side, causing the newly regenerated Thirteenth Doctor, and most of her books, to fall from the ship, over Earth. Fire completely engulfed the control room right before the TARDIS vanished. (TV: Twice Upon a Time)
