Hand-Picked Links — March 19, 2025

In like a lion, out like a lamb. It sure has been nice to get some sun and warm weather in Western PA. Here’s a look at some of the most interesting things we saw over the last few weeks.

Creative Works WEST

Guess who’s the official t-shirt partner for Creative Works in Seattle? It’s us. Come say hello, get a free (with the low, low price of admission) t-shirt.

Severance Episode 7

With the season finale of Severance tomorrow, enjoy this look back at the cinematography of one of the best episodes of the year, “Chikhai Bardo”, directed by Jessica Lee Gagné.

Airport

Fascinating story on the origin of Airport from Matthew Carter and its resurrection and digitization as a fully featured family with multiple weights and variants.

Boom

Having spent countless hours crossing oceans and continents in regular old airplanes (which is still incredible, to be fair), it sure would be nice to do it in half the time. I’d love to see Boom succeed in restoring supersonic commercial flights. We won’t know for years if they can make the technology work, much less build a successful business. Still, it’s about time someone tried.

Jack Perkins Interview

Don’t miss our interview last week with hoops painter Jack Perkins. There’s still time to get 20% off any @purehoop shirt using code featurefriday20. Sale ends in two days.
