The Sandwich Club – Miss Read

The Sandwich Club

We are The Sandwich Club, a London-based studio specialising in book design, artist book publishing, bookbinding, and risograph printing. All our publications are designed, edited, printed, and handbound in-house, in close collaboration with artists and photographers around the world.

The studio emphasises material choices and design as integral to the publishing process. Coming from backgrounds spanning book and graphic design, as well as visual art and curatorial practice, our publications explore how stories, images, text, and ideas from diverse cultural contexts can be unfolded, experienced, and circulated.

Our titles have been distributed through bookstores and pop-ups internationally, and we regularly present our work at art book fairs, including Bergen, Tokyo, Manchester, Singapore, Hong Kong, Kuala Lumpur, and Vienna.

Hands flipping through the publication, printed in offset with Metallic Gold Pantone 871 C, alongside risograph printing in Metallic Gold and HD Black inks. The featured images trace Paris and its replicas—particularly the Eiffel Tower—across cities such as Hangzhou, Las Vegas, Macau, and Florida, playing with impressions, reproduction, and reconstruction of the city that reflects anticipation, cultural projection, and escapism from the local.
