Irregularity
Walls protrude from walls as the corridors go on, faint bulbs lighting the hallways. The floor is covered is coarse black carpet, littered with crumbs and dirt. The walls are colored a dull shade of beige, the paint chipped and damaged, adorned with odd signs and seemingly useless windows that only open into solid concrete.
| Running out of time. |
Corners twist and turn like a labyrinth, a maze of monotony unfolding as one goes deeper. The ceiling overhead is cramped, with pipes and wires extending across the plaster. Support beams and needless platforms clutter the rooms, and strange objects can be found sparsely decorating the empty halls.
Most lights show signs of wear, flickering on and off occasionally, but some completely fail to illuminate the space, leaving entire stretches of "rooms" in darkness. The many hallways curve and bend in nonsensical ways, navigation becoming more distorted and incoherent as time passes. Rooms devoid of meaning create a limitless world of interior space, a realm unlike our own yet still so human.
