Pause at transitions between lit and dim zones; these are the most expressive moments.

Night Monserrate is less about documentation and more about presence.
Nocturnal interpretation
Night simplifies visual noise and amplifies structure. Volumes read clearly, circulation lines sharpen, and sensory attention increases.
Move slowly on purpose. Adaptation time is method, not delay, when reading low-light architecture.
