Showing two basic darkroom setups with minimal space and no running water. Storage room corner in Berlin and a bathroom darkroom in France: how they were made and what's the basic equipment you need to make a printing space of your own. We are going through enlargers, timers, positioning trays and red lights... I'm also addressing washing and drying of fiber-based papers without fancy devices.
Darkroom printing easels are my personal pain, as I've only encountered one in my life that was amazing (but it was someone else's). This brand doesn't exist anymore + is impossible to find. All existing ones are imo overpriced for what they do. That's why I started making easels myself, which saves a lot of money and nerves.
