What a back catalogue – it is really impressive. You should be immensely proud.And going forward I really like the sound of David Hoffman’s book (my era of visiting as a young teen) and Markéta Luskačová’s monograph.

Congratulations on the relaunch of SLB! I’ve enjoyed the titles I purchased and have re-read some. I saw the mention of On Christmas Day.That story has been with me every Christmas since you first shared it with us. Superb!

Onward and upward, GA. I have several of your previous titles, and they are favorites in my art library. Beautifully produced to last, all of the volumes reflect your unerring radar and dedication.
Enduring favorites are John Claridge photos, and the Adam Dant map book. In both cases, I’ve gotten hours of enjoyment and visual nourishment from these books. Claridge is a new-to-me discovery, and this book provides endless examples of his narrative, dramatic photos. And I think the Adam Dant map book (baronial-sized as a real MAP book should be!) is a must for anyone interested in graphic design, the art of map-making, and far more. It is a wonderful book to hold in one’s lap and slowly turn the pages, inspecting each detail.

The prospect of a book about the mosaic work is thrilling.
Congratulations!

I will certainly buy a copy of the “Mosaics” book, when it comes out.
Which reminds me – here in Walthamstow, as you know (?) there is now a rich & varied collection of “Large Wall Art” on building ends & sides, which is ongoing, I’m glad to say.
Would that be a suitable subject for a future publication?
