From Hector Guimard's Art Nouveau entrances to the 2001 official Metro diagram, this richly illustrated volume focuses on the design history of the stations, maps, signage and graphics of the Paris Metro. Its chapter numbers, colours and even fonts echoing the iconography of the Metro itself, the book traces the history of the system from its planning and construction around 1900 and pays particular attention to the enormous number of maps - official and unofficial - that have been designed over the years.
