Oly 12 f2 for interiors

Voigtlander 17.5 f 0.95 for low light, but this is manual focus only.

i started with the 12 mm, but didn't like the close distance indoor portriats. This is where the 17.5 rules.

The 12 mm strengths (size, AF, sharpness stopped down) are complementary with the flaws of the voigtlander. Both lenses give excelent colors, micro contrast and overall rendering.

The 15 mm might be a good compromise, but i don't own this one.
