Rough-in Wall Under Blue Hour Light

Exposed electrical conduits snake across a plasterboard wall in a Victoria staging area, illuminated by the cool blue of twilight bleeding through distant windows. Warm string lights hang overhead, casting soft yellow pools that highlight the texture of unfinished drywall and scattered dust. The surfaces show genuine site wear: scuffed edges, faint tool marks, and patches of gray plaster residue. Wooden studs peek through gaps in the board, their grain rough against the smooth but imperfect gypsum. Shadows stretch across the floor, meeting the baseboard where a layer of sawdust has accumulated. One conduit clamp holds a cable tight against the wall, its metal glinting faintly in the mixed light.
