8 march 2025 в 01:13
The series «Severance» has attracted many viewers with its stunning, yet witty fictional plot. Parodying the American corporate lifestyle, the Apple TV+ series follows the lives of «outsiders» and «innovators» working at Lumon Industries. The biotechnology corporation offers the idea of «separating» an employee’s work life from their personal life. As the series has resonated with fans, many wonder if it is possible to actually visit the Lumon office.
Below, find out what we know about the real office location of Lumon Industries.
According to the LinkedIn page corresponding to the Severance corporation, Lumon is described as a «leading biotechnology company».
«Founded by visionary Kira Igan, we take pride in upholding his legacy of excellence and adhering to his 9 core principles: Vision, Vitality, Wit, Honor, Humility, Kindness, Agility, Integrity, and Cunning», - the LinkedIn page states, noting that it «sets [Lumon] apart from other workplaces».
«We offer selected employees access to our patented Severance process», - the Lumon profile indicates. «What is Severance? Imagine being able to come to work completely free from home issues. Or imagine being able to go home and never think about work. Using minimally invasive surgical techniques, we can 'sever' your brain so that, essentially, you have a part that works and a part that plays».
Overall, Lumon promises to «change the way large corporations approach the ever-elusive 'work-life balance'».
Technically, yes — the Lumon building from the series «Severance» exists, but not as it is portrayed in the series. In reality, it is just an office space. According to Newsweek, the workspace used for filming «Severance» is called Bell Labs and is located in Holmdel Township, Monmouth County, New Jersey. The building was originally a research and development facility.
The publication also reported that other TV series and movies have used the Bell Labs office for filming, including «The Crowded Room» and «Law & Order: Organized Crime».
The first and second seasons of «Severance» are currently available for viewing on Apple TV+.
Apple has not yet confirmed whether «Severance» will be renewed for a third season. However, director Ben Stiller confirmed to The Hollywood Reporter that a writing team is already working in Los Angeles
