We are 10!

We are East!

We are nearing our tenth birthday. We have now published well over 100 titles and yet we remain where started, rooted in East London.

There is a story often told, probably apocryphal, that the east of big cities are the most creative and diverse – winds blow the ugly air to the east and that is where industry is set up, where the poorer but more multicultural communities are established. East is alive, East is creative, East is fringe.

While our list is now global in subject matter, with books no longer just about London but about women painters and new colourful homes, each book we make is infused with a unique quality that we think of as ‘East’. We are going far.

We are going nowhere.

Looking at Trees A collection of beautiful and unusual contemporary photography of trees.

This book celebrates the enduring beauty and wonder of trees with an anthology of photographs that reveal these diverse and ancient plants in a new light – from tropical mangroves to suburban topiary and tangled hedgerows. The images in this exquisitely bound book have a strong slant towards contemporary photography –

looking at newer, more unusal projects that capture a wealth of forms, landscapes and ecosystems. Unlike traditional images of majestic oaks, these pictures are shot using a variety of techniques – some experimental – that confront our often destructive relationship with these mysterious and life-sustaining plants.

This book contains the work of over 20 established photographers from around the world.

East End Pubs Alistair Von Lion & Tim George Celebrating the stories, culture and communities of the East End’s greatest pubs – before they vanish.

In the last decade, London’s East End has seen some of the highest rates of pub closures in Britain. Once bastions of the local community, where neighbours living cheek-by-jowl could convene over a pint, the traditional East End pub is in danger of becoming a relic. It’s time to halt the tide and celebrate these great pubs so we don’t

lose them forever. From wet led backstreet boozers to gastropubs serving local produce and craft ale, this book celebrates the rich histories, snug bars, welcoming Guv’nors, florid carpets, loyal punters and inventive landladies of these unique and cherished institutions.

Brutalist Plants Olivia Broome Green vs grey, plants vs concrete: 150 images of brutalist structures interogated by nature.

Brutalist architecture is commonly associated with a cold, austere aesthetic, but architects have long found ways of incorporating greenery into their designs, creating a striking contrast between hard concrete and the soft, organic shapes of plants. And if not designed, nature often has its own way of reclaiming the built environment.

From green roofs to living walls, from the pocket gardens of Le Corbusier’s Unité d’Habitation to the lush couryards and conservatory of London’s Barbican Centre, Olivia Broome has curated an impressive selection of striking images from around the world.

Olivia Broome runs the successful Brutalist Plants instagram account, which has a global online following.

British Seaside Towns A revival of interest in Britain’s humble seaside town has reinvigorated its faded Victorian splendour.

If the idea of the British seaside town has you thinking of lines of pastel-coloured beach huts, nostalgic arcade games on the pier and washed out seafront hotels, think again. From Kent to the Isle of Mull, towns all along the British coast are home to interesting artistic communities (see St.

Leonards), stunning scenery (see Lyme Regis) and some of the best seafood in Europe. Why fly to the south of France when you can hop on a train to Broadstairs for fish and chips on a sandy beach, or Cardigan for a dip in Pembrokeshire’s pristine blue water?

A Notebook for Bad Ideas The perfect notebook in which to risk imperfection

‘Have no fear of perfection – you’ll never reach it.’ – Salvador Dalí Hoxton Mini Press set out to design the perfect notebook for creative thinkers: it had to lay flat, have beautiful paper and hard-wearing cloth but also be a space where mistakes are welcome. The major blocks to creativity are lack of confidence

and the terror of imperfection. This clothbound notebook, whilst being reassuringly beautiful, also contains inspirational quotes on creativity that give the user the permission to let loose on the page, to scribble silliness in complete confidence that the best ideas often flush out with the worst ones. Life can be a bit messy, after all.

Enjoy the capital without the cash

Sonya Barber

Frank Gallaugher

From baklava to bresaola, this is an insider’s guide to the finest foods in London. Is there anything better than a salt beef on rye? Or a pot of fresh baba ghanouj with warm flatbread? No, there isn’t. Unless you count creamy kefir from a bustling polski sklep or a breakfast of ricotta-filled cornetti, or any other of the hundreds of culinary delights that you can discover in the capital’s choicest delicatessens.

The brightest and best places to drink, dance, cruise, hang out and enjoy in the city. If it’s queer, it’s here: culturally and historically, London is one of the premier cities in the world for LGBTQ+ life. With SO much on offer, it can be hard to know where to go. This is where we come in.

Sara Kiyo Popowa & Emmy Watts Created with the expert insight of Sara Kiyo Popowa and Emmy Watts, as well as original photography from Sam A. Harris, this is a pithy guide to the best ethical eateries in all of London: from junk food to fine dining, superfood bowls to sweet treats. It’s a must for anyone that cares about the planet as much as their taste buds.

These previously unpublished photographs by David Granick capture the streets and waterways of London’s East End in the warm hues of Kodachrome film. Journey back in time to a place now long vanished. One of our bestselling books.

Now home to Canary Wharf and global finance, the Isle of Dogs was once the beating heart of industrial east London.

These photographs, taken between 1982 and 1987, show the island just before the big money moved in and the area was forever transformed.

When Shirley Baker began taking photographs at dog shows in the 1960s the hairdos of the owners were more impressive than those of their groomed canines. Not only a fascinating portrait of the phenomenon, Dog Show also captures the tender, amusing and at times obsessive relationship between humans and their dogs.

For children growing up in Britain fifty or more years ago, streets and alleyways were playgrounds of curiosity and adventure. Nowadays, tempted by technology or restricted from being alone outside, ‘playing out’ is no longer the norm. These images from leading street photographers form a joyful, nostalgic record of past freedoms.

Following our hugely popular The East End in Colour 1960-1980 by David Granick, this second book by a different photographer, Tim Brown, picks up the story in 1980 as east London enters an extraordinary decade of transformation.

Tim took these pictures on 35mm film between shifts of driving trains on London Underground’s Central Line.

Back in the 1970s, when it was still acceptable to talk, kiss and even smoke on the London Underground, Mike Goldwater spent years documenting chance moments of intimacy and humour across this iconic network of tunnels that live beneath the capital.

East London in the 70s was raw and vivid: bombed-out houses, kids playing in the streets, factories abuzz with workers.

These images take us on a journey through workshops, street markets and council homes to capture a time and place before technology and gentrification changed local lives forever.

These glorious photographs, taken during a particularly wet summer at Skegness, capture a defiant national spirit at a time when Billy Butlin’s original vision of ‘fun for all the family’ was under threat from cheap foreign travel and the faltering English weather.

Book 9: London 1977–1987 Berris Conolly The familiar streets of the capital are rendered almost uncanny in this contemplative, tonal series by Berris Conolly. Captivating in their atmospheric, filmic quality, Conolly’s photographs reveal small moments from the past, hinting at stories that have just happened; or are about to. They have both a stillness and a promise of approaching disturbance, drawing us in to the urban landscape and making the London of forty years ago feel at once distant and strangely present.

Various photographers

For Londoners, waking up to find the busy streets of the capital suddenly muffled by a thick, crisp blanket of snow never loses its thrill. This collection of black-and-white photographs shows people from the 30s to the 70s playing together in the snow-carpeted city. From Trafalgar Square snowball fights and makeshift sledges, to skiis in Hyde Park and vintage snow suits, they capture the frosted-over capital through the eras and celebrate the eternal joy of a snow day.

Vintage photographs celebrating the quintessential British picnic: often cold, at times chaotic, always fun. This nostalgic and often hilarious collection of images taken in the last century capture the wonderfully defiant spirit of those that picnic in the British Isles. Whether tucking into crisp sandwiches in a field of cows, or sharing a thermos flask on the edge of a windy cliff, — the people in these pictures represent community, friendship and optimism.

Raise a glass to this nostalgic, visual celebration of old London boozers and those who brought them to life. Without its pubs, London just wouldn’t be London. They are the backbone and the heart – not to mention the liver – of our city. This collection of vintage photographs is a glorious reminder of the pre-pandemic joys of jostling at the bar while also showcasing the classic design of the traditional pub, from large lounges to secretive backrooms and smoky bars.

Since its inception in 1948, the National Health Service has held a place at the heart of the nation. Promising to care for the citizens of Britain ‘from the cradle to the grave’, it offers universal health care for all, regardless of wealth or status.

This book celebrates the triumphs and trials of the NHS through the years, highlighting key events and medical milestones, and providing a timely reminder of the importance of maintaining this vital institution.

The pandemic is over (or is it?). The rumbles of discontentment and nationalism around Brexit have finally quietened... but have they? This, the fourth volume in the British Journal of Photography and Hoxton Mini Press’ collaborative series, brings together 200 portraits from all over our island that show Britain at a time of collective regrouping.

These vintage photographs take you on a journey across Europe and America’s highways, celebrating the spirit of Kerouac’s great open road. Family road trips and first cars, unplanned pit-stops and incredible vistas are rediscovered from found colour slides, selected from The Anonymous Project’s collection of over 800,000.

As many of us question the necessity of working from an office, this photographic series – taken in the days before wifi and iPhones – is a poignant reminder of how things once were.

Capturing this corporate world with a tender yet satirical eye, American photographer Steven Ahlgren’s nostalgic series will resonate with anyone who has ever loved, hated or simply endured office life.

Filled with exquisite photography, honest insider’s advice and the best of British hotel dining, rooms, grounds and spa experiences, this is a book both to have on your coffee table and impel you to pack a weekend bag.

Want to know the best dog-friendly cafés, hotels and parks in London? This book, written by dog lovers, is packed with locals’ tips on how to enjoy the city with your pooch in tow (or vice versa). Full of original photography and four-legged advice on everything from where to fetch the biggest sticks, this book can be enjoyed both on a long walk or curled up with your furry best friend on the sofa.

Go fetch.

From the best green spaces to go fetch, to the most stylish cafés and hotels that welcome guests on four legs, this guide tells you all you need to know to have a tail-wagging time in New York City. With beautiful photography, handy maps and plenty of insider’s tips, it lets you in on where to eat, drink, walk, visit and stay, alongside profiles of some of New York’s most interesting dog owners.

In a unique visual dialogue, Déjà View brings together the work of beloved photographer Martin Parr, master of capturing the art in everyday existence, with The Anonymous Project’s archive of unidentified vintage slides, collected from across Europe and America. Surprising and delighting in their similarity, these affectionately matched images give a delicious feeling of déjà vu, while reminding us of photography’s greatest power: to intimately preserve everyday moments of humour, warmth, ennui and absurdity.

2020 brought a seismic break with normality. For those living in urban centres, lockdown made us wonder if city life as we knew it was gone forever. The images in this book express the anxiety, the love, the boredom, the intimacy, the grief, the tranquillity and the renewed appreciation of nature that isolation brought. Uncanny but often uplifting, they show London at a defining moment in its history – telling a story that will resonate far beyond the pandemic.

2020 sparked a re-energised love of the capital’s parks for its many inhabitants, and photographer Sophia Spring was no exception. Camera in hand, Spring traverses the first dates, family meet-ups, yoga classes, swimming parties and other familiar life activities that suddenly started to take place outdoors.

Following the success of Portrait of Britain and Portrait of Humanity, this third edition of the latter brings together 200 new portraits taken by photographers of all levels from all over the world, selected from tens of thousands of entries.

Emma J Page & Rachael Smith

Clare Finney & Liz Seabrook A glance at the current list of British Michelin-starred chefs will tell you the food scene’s historic gender imbalance is far from solved. Women, though traditionally encouraged to cook at home, have long been much less championed in professional kitchens.

This book celebrates those at the forefront of modern food, and the experiences that got them there.

London has some of the most stylish shopfronts in the world. From centuries old to brilliantly new, a stroll down any of the capital’s high streets provides a glorious miscellany of history and design.

For shops are no longer just somewhere we buy things – you can do that virtually, these days – but places we gather inspiration, browse for creativity and happen upon special objects.

Memories of growing up in Britain

Andrés Gallardo Albajar

Paul Trevor

Symmetry, line, shadow and colour: these photographs, taken in twenty cities across the world, provide an immersive visual tour of contemporary architecture. From Bilbao to Beijing, Stockholm to Seoul, journey through the urban geometry that forms the spatial soundtrack to our lives.

Paul Trevor’s extreme close-ups, made spontaneously on the streets of east London, capture Britain’s perennial social divide. They contrast the people in The City with those in the nearby market of Brick Lane.

Shot during Thatcher’s reign, the imagery is as fresh and relevant today as it was then.

The Anonymous Project Unknown yet strangely familiar, these anonymous family photographs provide a unique window into past lives. Each image, shot on colour slide film in Britain between the mid 40s and 70s, transports us to a world full of possible stories and forgotten memories.

A celebration of diversity

The Silence of Dogs in Cars

Katie Waggett

Martin Usborne

In the wake of a terror attack and determined not to let the voices of separatism win out, photographer Katie Waggett embarked on an intimate survey of London’s many religions. Her portraits, set alongside personal quotes, are a feast of colour and a love letter to a city that so depends on diversity for its survival.

These cinematic photographs of dogs in cars, taken mostly at night, reveal an emotional honesty that only animals can express. Behind the dogs’ eyes are feelings that humans so often avoid: the fear of being alone, the uncertainty of the unknown, but also a certain hope that can be found in silence.

When a pilot’s daughter tweeted saying that all she wanted for Christmas was for her dad’s Instagram account of hotel carpets to go viral, she didn’t expect it to happen overnight. Hundreds of thousands of people now share Bill’s love of the fascinating, wacky and sometimes ‘challenging’ designs of the hotel carpets he sees around the world (he now has a dedicated following of nearly half a million).

From Blackpool to Brighton, and Barry Island to Brightlingsea, these richly detailed photographs capture the candyfloss colours and faded nostalgia of a seaside culture that is peculiarly (yet wonderfully) British.

Portrait of Humanity brings together 200 of the best images taken by photographers of all levels from all over the world, selected from tens of thousands of entries. The publication supports a global touring exhibition which will visit Nigeria, Australia, USA and many more places, bringing global exposure to the book.

Fashionistas and retirees, drag queens and bodybuilders, waiters and wanderers: these sumptuous black and white photographs taken by Barry Lewis capture the rich colour of Miami Beach in the early 90s. After two decades of drugs, corruption and violence, the coastal strip had come back to life and the party was just beginning…

Renowned photographer Iain McKell spent two years immersed in a community of young female artists, documenting their unique performances, parties and personalities. The resulting visual diary is a celebration of freedom and selfexpression, and a reminder to embrace the most creative parts of who we are.

Men Photographing Women in the 70s Michael Abramson Once a month, in 1970s Chicago, men were allowed to take cameras into underground strip clubs. Michael Abramson, a local photographer, thought it would be more revealing to photograph the men photographing the women. Left in a drawer until now, the resulting images are a fascinating, funny and at times unsettling portrayal of the uninhibited male gaze.

Laurence Stephens

Peter Zelewski has spent years capturing the faces and stories of identical twins.

Some inexplicably lost their hearing at the exact same time, others unlock each others’ phones with their indistinguishable fingerprints, but perhaps more surprisingly, some don’t get on. These powerful portraits tap into one of the most fascinating of all human relationships.

What began as a chance visit to Barcelona Cathedral led photographer Laurence Stephens to spend the next three summers exploring the cultural landscapes of Spain and Portugal. From stuffy museums to breathtaking skylines, with camera in hand, he went in search of the not-so-elusive bored tourist. Shot in square format as a subtle nod to our current ‘Instagram generation’, these playful images present an unforgiving vision of the tourist experience.

Chris Dorley-Brown

Sophie Harris-Taylor

These ultra-sharp street photographs of corners in East London are composed from multiple exposures, a technique that enables Dorley-Brown to play out different narratives simultaneously, creating surreal, dream-like scenes. An Orthodox Jewish family and a woman pushing a pram appear on the street corner of a half-demolished building, passing each other by, when in reality they were never there at the same time.

With beautiful photography by Rick Pushinsky and compelling stories by writer and novelist Christina Hopkinson, Startup London brings together businesses from multiple industries - tech, food, fashion and more – who range from building robotic arms (Automata) to delivering flowers by bicycle (Petalon), and from creating shared workspaces for startups (Second Home) to making jars of award-winning peanut butter (Pip & Nut).

London is one of the world’s most photographed cities, so you might think there’s nothing left to see. But you’d be wrong.

Through the eyes of 24 contemporary photographers you can venture along hidden canals, around notorious housing estates, through surreal street scenes and deep underground. This is London as it is today and as you’ve never seen it before.

Hackney, east London, is well known for its vibrant creative community.

Photographer Jenny Lewis takes us behind studio doors to explore the minds and spaces of a tribe of artists who have defined the area but now risk losing their studios through rapid gentrification.

Emily Stein’s photographs of children blowing bubblegum on beaches around the world are a portrait of the freedom, innocence and joy of youth.
