I had the pleasure of working on the brand new Mark Simonson site. I'm a big fan of Mark's work, a one man shop who makes killer fonts for print and screen. I have enjoyed using his fonts in the past –especially Proxima Nova, the king of all webfonts– but have become infatuated with his whole collection of typefaces, notably: Bookmania, Refrigerator Deluxe, and his Filmotype series.
Was just looking at the new website the other day – really love your work on these. The reference material you mentioned is so well suited and there's so much personality in each specimen, yet they all stay coherent as a set. Great colours too!

Thanks to @Matt Weinberg for the Expression Engine work. The backend is nearly prettier than the front end.

Awesome! You guys did a great job of doing justice to his beautiful typefaces. I didn't actually know he made all of those. Pretty cool!
