Mark Sinclair ed., Studio Culture Now, 2020

Studio Culture Now is the essential guide to setting up, running and developing a design studio. It offers bang up-to-date advice and guidance for designers working in a world of rapid change.
In 2009, Unit Editions published its first book, Studio Culture: The secret life of the graphic design studio. It sold out quickly.

Studio Culture Now features in-depth interviews with a host of leading design studios. The interviewees share their experiences, insights, fears and joys, and reveal how they deal with the fundamentals and aspirations of studio life.
