Разделение (Severance): почему никому нельзя рисовать карту

Nobody on the severed floor in Severance is allowed to draw a map of it. The building above that floor is real, though: Bell Labs in Holmdel, New Jersey, designed by Eero Saarinen and opened in 1962, and its floor plan explains more about Lumon than the show ever says out loud. This essay goes through both seasons with that plan open: the corridors, the rooms without windows, the green carpet, the desk with four seats, the break room and the door. It also goes to Columbus, Indiana, where the same architect built a bank out of the same glass for a client who wanted the opposite from it, and to Columbus (2017), the film Kogonada shot there years before he was reported to be directing season three. 0:00 Nobody is allowed to draw a map 0:39 I.
