Wallpaper City Guides

By Piers Fawkes on October 4, 2006

Go on, admit it – you used to dig those pull out city-guide cards in the back of Wallpaper magazine but you never went as far as to rip them off as you didn’t want your friends to think you still read Wallpaper after all these years.

Don’t worry! Phaidon saves the day with these pocket size guides from Wallpaper that provides a slightly more stylish and sophisticated suggested itinerary than the other books that still expect you to be lugging around your back pack. Each book contains sections on Landmarks, Hotels, Urban Life, an Architour, Shopping, Sports and Escapades. There’s even a section on what to do if you’re in a city for just 24 hours – and the fold out page at the back gives a color coded guide to the neighborhoods to visit – and some to avoid.

There are going to be 60 books in the range – of all the cities you expect – and others you’ve never heard of before. But with these – you’ll go see ‘em.
