How do the settings and surroundings contribute to 1984's meaning?

Everything about the surroundings and settings of the novel contribute to the meaning behind the story.  Every place that Winston is in affects him differently. Same goes for Julia.  The two minute hate is a prime example. It shows us that even though Winston's mind is saying something different than what is going on around him he is still affected by this enviornment and shows the control the society has.  This is an anti-utopian book and everything about the setting and surroundings are geared to support that meaning.
