Pentagram has just announced the Black Book, a new 800-page overview of their recent work. The book is a compilation of over 400 projects from the last several years, arranged in alphabetical order, like a dictionary, and printed on Bible paper, like a Bible, complete with tabbed sections and ribbons for bookmarking. It covers pretty much everything they do, from architecture to graphics, buildings to websites, branding to signage, interiors, packaging, exhibitions, interfaces, furniture, products, brochures, magazines, and houses, all in simple picture-and-caption form.

Unfortunately the Black Book is not available for purchase. You can try your luck and win your very own copy by being one of the first 50 people to write in at the e-mail address below.
