Desk note: Monexus framed this piece around the engineering of atmosphere rather than the spectacle itself — the difference being that spectacle is reported, while engineering implies intent and consequence. The Guardian's reporting on the tunnel cover and concourse TVs was the most specific available material, and the article treats those details as the structural centre rather than colour.
