Éditions B42 publishes books exploring the visual environment in which we live, contributing to the creation of a library of tools for reflection on the practices of design, graphic design, typography and contemporary creation. These studies intersect with other fields such as technology, media, digital technology, anthropology and cultural studies.
B42 is committed to translating major texts in the history of design and typography, as well as publishing essays that contribute to the dissemination and renewal of knowledge.
This work, which began in 2008, has resulted in a catalogue of reference books, particularly popular with teachers, which constitute a living, ever-changing collection.
They occupy a prominent place in the libraries of designers, graphic designers, architects, artists, students and teachers in these fields.
