“Makers of East London captures the energy and spirit of a unique part of the capital. Evocative photography alongside insightful profiles of makers reveals hidden processes behind objects both everyday and exceptional.” Annie Warburton, Crafts Council
Bike builders, violin makers, ceramicists…East London is the creative hub of one of the world’s most dynamic cities and is now seeing a resurgence of craftspeople breathing life back into traditional disciplines. This book takes a tour of their studios and practices to see what it takes to be a maker in a world of mass production. Our largest and most ambitious book yet.
Photography by Charlotte Schreiber, written by Katie Treggiden

'Déjà View'. A collaboration between Martin Parr and The Anonymous Project. 144pp, hardback, 205 x 155mm.
This book is a playful conversation between two important bodies of photographic work. Each spread of Déjà View pairs one of Martin Parr’s iconic snapshots with an image from The Anonymous Project’s collection of found amateur photographs taken between the 1950s and 80s. These unnervingly similar ‘twin’ pictures remind us of photography’s greatest power: to intimately preserve everyday moments of humour, warmth, ennui and absurdity.
Martin Parr is one of Britain’s most esteemed and well-loved photographers; he has published around 40 solo photobooks and has been a member of Magnum Photos for nearly 30 years.
The Anonymous Project is dedicated to collecting and preserving mid-century colour slides from around the world. Started in 2017 by filmmaker Lee Shulman, the project brings to light Kodachrome memories that might otherwise be lost forever.

'British Boutique Hotels: An Opinionated Guide' by Gina Jackson. 208pp, hardback, 145 x 209mm. Illustrations by Charlotte Ager.
An unashamedly simple and highly opinionated guide to the very best boutique escapes in Britain. Lockdown has been hard: take a much-needed break. Stay in a wildflower-inspired suite in the Scottish Highlands, explore the Welsh countryside from an art-filled historic townhouse, or sip local cider in the grounds of a Somerset manor.
Following on from Hoxton Mini Press’ highly successful series of pocket-sized, paperback Opinionated Guides to London, this sumptuous, larger hardback is our first guide to Britain: with more detailed write-ups, more stunning photography, and even more opinion.
Gina Jackson is a travel blogger and photographer who, though a proud Londoner, can more often be found testing out hotel rooms all over the country. A champion of the great British staycation, she shares her personal recommendations and honest critiques on her Instagram @ginagoesto, alongside working full time in tech.
