For more on the design of The Prisoner, I give my highest recommendation to Reading between Designs: Visual Imagery and the Generation of Meaning in The Avengers, The Prisoner, and Doctor Who by Piers D. Britton and Simon J. Barker (2003: University of Texas Press). It's a very rich study of British television production (and costume) design.
