darkroom
Photographer's processing space
A darkroom is a room kept dark or lit only with special red light, used for developing photographs.
The red light doesn't expose light-sensitive film and paper, allowing photographers to process images by hand.
Before digital photography, darkrooms were essential equipment for serious photographers: She spent hours in the darkroom perfecting her prints.
