   vE · The Entire Estate (motion in /ve/estate.js).
   One continuous day: dusk at the gates → the mist rises into a cream morning
   (manifesto, bedrooms) → a day in the house, doorway by doorway, into night
   → the evening (services, who it's for, the close). One light-to-dark turn,
   carried by the story, instead of alternating blocks.
