I use this effect a lot when making videos and taking screen captures. It might be useful in your work.
Set your links to a _No Display link style, and make your Material Area fill a solid color. I like gray (or grey if I am trying to be all fancy pantsy.)
The make the corridor object layer (that “master” corridor layer) transparent.
I showed something similar before:
Civil 3D 2011: Using AutoCAD Transparency for Images
For more on code sets and how they can make your corridors pretty, check out some Autodesk University Online classes.
