B42 publishes books questioning our visual environment and contributing to the formation of a library, which offers tools to think about the practices of design, graphic design, typography and contemporary creation. These studies cross-reference various domains: technology, media, digital, anthropology, and culture.

B42 has been undertaking to translate major texts about the history of design and typography, and essays, which aim to transmit and reinvent knowledge.

Since the publishing house started in 2008, a catalogue has been built on reference books, which are particularly acclaimed among teachers and form a dynamic collection constantly setting ideas in motion.
