The distinct visual style of Severance was inspired by Swedish photographer Lars Tunbjörk’s 2001 series Office, according to cinematographer Jessica Lee Gagné.
At first, she hesitated to take on the project because of how dull and monotonous office spaces can be, but ultimately embraced it.
"Working in Office apps, we are trapped in a world that ceased to exist decades ago. Like the office in Severance, the office embedded in MS is fetishized: margins, borders, and page numbers are treated as signals of authority rather than remnants of a paper era." ia.net/topics/trapp...
🎉 Best of luck to all writers! We can't wait to see what you come up with.
Supporting writers is something that has always driven what we do at iA. That's why we're so proud of our continued partnership with @nycmidnight.bsky.social. Learn more about our sponsorships for upcoming 2026 challenges:

Why iPad/iOS? You can use the static ones. iOS/iPadOS doesn't have an API for dynamic ones.
