This fascinating full-colour photographic compendium invites you to discover Britain in a new way, through the everyday objects that are part of the fabric of contemporary life in the UK. Containing a wealth of iconic British design staples as well as the treasures of everyday life - from the Mini and the Anglepoise lamp to Mk underwear and the Argos catalogue - this guide is a must-have for anyone who wants to understand British culture from the inside out, with all its idiosyncrasies and quirks. AUTHOR: Geoff Hall writes on design-related matters and teaches part time on the Design course at Manchester. Kamila Kasperowicz came to live in Britain from her native Poland three years ago and is ideally placed to recognise the peculiarities of British people and their everyday culture. ILLUSTRATIONS: Colour photographs
