darkrooms
Film developing spaces
Darkrooms are rooms kept dark for developing photographic film and prints.
Before digital photography, darkrooms were essential to the craft—photographers worked under dim red safelights, processing images through chemical baths.
The term also refers to rooms in bars or clubs, kept dark for anonymous sexual encounters: The club had a darkroom in back.
