Famous for 15 Years: The Wallpaper* 150

September marks not only our 150th issue, but also 15 years of Wallpaper*. To help us celebrate, we're taking a trip back over our prestigious past to collate the W*150: a list of the 150 people who have most influenced, inspired and improved the way we live, work and travel over the last 15 years.
The debates of who's in, and who's out, are well under way here at W* HQ, where we have set a few rules: the people have to be alive, and their era-defining moment has to have been within the last 15 years, not before. However, this is too enthralling a contest to keep to ourselves. Over the coming weeks we'll be previewing who's made our list, and as well as your comments, we'd love to hear the people you think most deserve a place in our line-up. The final W*150 will be revealed in the magazine's print and iPad editions on 11th August, but until then, we're all ears - just remember to include the tag #W150 in your tweets.
