With clients and collaborators that include Apple, Google, Nike, Selfridges, Cos, and the Barbican, the breadth of projects featured is wide-ranging, and includes the pair's edible installation for Wallpaper* Handmade last year, 'The Structure of Chocolate', created in collaboration with Belgian chocolatier Pierre Marcolini and marquetry specialist Toby Winteringham.

Murray and Winteringham have pieced together an indispensible visual compendium that gets ‘beneath the surface of how and why pattern is important and what we can learn from it to positively shape the future of design - and beyond.’ Pictured: Curtain Call, by Tim Gutt.

More than just an impeccably curated collection of images, A New Way of Seeing is peppered with thoughtful essays honing in on specific patterns, histories and quotes from philosophers, mathematicians, novelists, poets and even a Roman emperor. Photography: Jessica Klingelfuss
