Peer comment(s):

agree Muriel Vasconcellos : "Environment," not "atmosphere." I searched Google for environment+furnished and got 122,000 hits! The first page had to do exactly with this type of context.

environments

I think your hesitation may have had to do with using "environments" in the plural. So I gave it the acid test and searched for "environments+furnished" and got 177 hits for the plural. I wasn't aware of the use of this word in the plural, but it's definitly part of the jargon in the furniture industry.
