A, B.
We can solve this Logically - using the sentence structure.
The structure ("has discarded X... and concentrated on Y) implies a relationship of contrast between x and y, that is - between the current simplicity and the discarded style: flamboyant and ornate (intricate) are strong antonyms of simple.
