Black and white photo. Atrium interior of a 1980s-era concrete government building. The floor is reflective dark tile, but otherwise the interior is drab. The floor plan is open to the third-story ceiling, with mezzanines and stairs between levels. The ceiling is a slanted and multi-paned skylight, visible through and above thick concrete rafters. The vibe is dystopian underground bunker. At right, a lone figure in shadows walks forward, unaware of the camera.
