Penguin Books / Designing Modern Britain - Design Museum Exhibition Penguin Books Book Publisher (1935-) Designing Modern Britain - Design Museum Exhibition Until 26 November 2006 When PENGUIN was founded in 1935 with the radical concept of producing inexpensive paperback editions of high quality books, it adopted an equally progressive approach to typography and cover design. Under Jan Tschichold in the 1940s and Germano Facetti in the 1960s, Penguin became an exemplar of book design. Returning to London from a weekend at the Devon home of the crime writer Agatha Christie in 1934, the publisher Allen Lane scoured Exeter Station for something to read. All he could find were reprints of 19th century novels and Lane decided to found a publishing house to produce good quality paperbacks sold at sixpence each, the same price as a packet of cigarettes. Lane’s secretary suggested Penguin as a “dignified, but flippant? The rigorous application of colour, grid and typography in those early paperbacks instilled Penguin with a commitment to design from the start.
