Or do we want to define 起眼 as "conspicuous/remarkable" instead.
It's usually used in a negative structure.

丸竹的外觀表面上毫不起眼,但仔細觀察,窗戶外的鐵欄杆都費心地鍛鑄成丸竹的商標形狀,彷彿見證著老店的昔日風華。
The store seems to be nothing out of the ordinary, but a closer look reveals the company's logo intricately cast in the iron bars spanning the shop's windows-a testimony to Wante's former glory.

唉,这家夜店外面看看不起眼,里面装修得倒不错啊。
(Man, this night club isn't much to look at from the outside, but the inside has actually been renovated really nicely.)

要我说啊,连锁咖啡店的布置装修都是千篇一律的,反而是那些开在不起眼的小街道上的小咖啡馆更吸引我。
