By Phillip Pennington, with a foreword by Peter Saville CBE

The British European Airways (BEA) fleet of aircraft, featuring the distinctive red square logo, became part of the visual landscape of 1960s Britain. The development and implementation of the identity was the work of two designers: John Lunn and, remarkably for the period in which it was designed, architect and designer Mary de Saulles.

Written with the assistance of Mary de Saulles, Red square sheds light on the creation of the identity and the breadth of its application, a story which has not been told in any detail before. With almost 400 illustrations, including many original items from the author’s own collection, photography of Mary de Saulles’ personal archives by her son, Steven de Saulles, and a foreword by Peter Saville CBE, this is the most comprehensive account of the subject published to date.

“Mary de Saulles made an important contribution... and this book ensures that she finally gets the deserved recognition.”  Peter Saville, CBE

Author Phill Pennington, former Factory Records designer, brings insider expertise to this meticulously researched tribute to mid-century aviation design excellence.
