Pentagram: Living by Design

The book Pentagram: Living by Design is an expansive portrait of one of the world’s most influential design practices, offering a deep and visual chronicle of its creative legacy. Across two volumes, the work traces the firm’s journey from its 1970s London origins to its current global impact, presenting both narrative biography and a comprehensive directory of partners. With 1,392 pages of images, essays and archival material, it invites readers to explore how multidisciplinary work—spanning branding, architecture, industrial design and digital media—has shaped design history. The format itself reflects precision: clean layouts, thoughtful typography and heavy paper stock mirror the clarity of the studio’s own practice. Suitable for designers, historians or anyone drawn to the intersection of creativity and commerce, the book serves both as reference and visual inspiration. Whether displayed open on a coffee table or studied for insight, it carries substance and style in equal measure. More than a chronicle, it is a design object in its own right—celebrating form, function and collaboration in one definitive volume.

VARUD means danger zone in Iceland 🇮🇸. This website is my personal version of that zone - filled with design, minimalism, and everything dangerously aesthetic. My wishlist keeps getting longer (and pricier) every day. So I turned temptation into curation — a space to admire without always buying.
