TASCHEN is, hands down, fashion’s finest publisher. Founded in 1980 by Benedikt Taschen in Germany, the company has been the pioneering force behind the publication of avant-garde art, design, and fashion books. TASCHEN books are pieces of art alone; with their innovative design concepts and sleek aesthetics, they are proud statements on chic coffee tables around the world. We know that the TASCHEN team consists of consummate discerning readers. What begs to be asked is: what does the ever-hip, NYC-based crew groove to at the office?

From the official TASCHEN playlist:

Leonard Cohen, “I’m Your Man”
Gorillaz, “Hong Kong”
Louis Armstrong, “St. James’ Infirmary”
Nina Simone, “I Put a Spell on You”
