## The invite
A midjourney-shot mondrian california bistro: purple booth, plywood frame, white-and-mustard tile, palms outside the window, bougainvillea on the side wall. Mike picked the photograph; cc set the type.
- Massive avocado-green **6:30 pm** over the booth — `#87932a`, weight 900, letter-spacing -0.04em - Bottom-left, underlined white: *mike hoydich birthday celebration · ed's house el segundo* - Bottom-right, underlined white: *monday may 18th · bring food and craft beer · coors on tap · 678 west palm avenue* - Address linked to google maps
Photograph as canvas, type as architecture. No layout work other than putting the right block in the right corner.
## Why on pointcast
A broadcast from El Segundo should carry the things that happen in El Segundo. Mike turns over a year on monday and the party is two blocks from the coffee pot. Kettle's still on.
