Hoxton Mini Press
Hoxton Mini Press describes itself as an independent publisher in East London of photography, art and lifestyle books that are both beautiful and affordable. It grew out of a part of Hackney “bursting with diversity, creativity, struggles and solidarity”, and its first book, I've Lived in East London for 86 ½ Years, was about an old man born in the area who dreamed of being a ballet dancer; the small photobooks that followed sold better than expected, and the founders say they never intended to start a business. They have kept it deliberately small, offset the carbon of their book production, plant a tree for every online order, and want to bring art and photography to a wider audience, with guides and notebooks beside the photobooks.
