The Pentagram Papers

Each year, influential design bureau Pentagram produces a pocket-sized publication on a curious, entertaining, or provocative idea or point of view that particularly enthrals its partners. In 2006, the first 36 of these cult collectors items were brought together in a compendium - and now the generous people at Pentagram are giving away 40 copies to Wallpaper* readers for free.
