Hey there!<br />

You might recognize us as the crew behind the renowned Stickerbomb<br />

series. But as our ideas expanded, we realized we needed a space to house<br />

all our creative concepts. That’s where <strong>Soi</strong> <strong>Books</strong> comes in. “<strong>Soi</strong>,” meaning<br />

“street” in Thai, embodies our dedication to exploring urban culture, from<br />

street photography to art and everything in between.<br />

Our story traces back to our roots in crafting documentaries, diving into a<br />

myriad of topics, subcultures, and stories, shaping them into compelling<br />

films. Some of our cherished projects include “Bassweight: A Dubstep<br />

Documentary,” “Rackgaki: Japanese Graffiti,” “Soka Afrika,” delving into<br />

human rights issues and immigration, and “Foul Play,” exploring corruption<br />

in Asian football.<br />

Amid our immersion in the world of film and advertising, we were also<br />

deeply involved in the creation of illustration and art books with Laurence<br />

King Publishing. Laurence and the entire LKP team were instrumental in<br />

our creative evolution, molding us into authors and nurturing our journey<br />

into becoming publishers. Their influence not only shaped our work<br />

in television, film, and advertising but also significantly impacted our<br />

approach to curating art and stories.<br />

It was within this nurturing environment that the Stickerbomb series was<br />

born. With over 10 books and a global readership of around 400,000<br />

to 500,000, it became a cornerstone of our creative expression. Our<br />

endeavors expanded to encompass street art books and an eclectic range<br />

of gift and stationery titles.<br />

This rich tapestry of experiences prompted us to embark on a new path<br />

in publishing. The essence of our documentaries and our anthropological<br />

approach form the core of every book we craft. As a global team, with<br />

members spanning the UK, Europe, Asia, and the US, the success of the<br />

Stickerbomb series enables us to offer artists solutions that foster their growth.<br />

Whether we’re collaborating with a graffiti artist in Indonesia or curating<br />

a book on craft beer stickers, <strong>Soi</strong> <strong>Books</strong> remains dedicated to sharing a<br />

distinctive viewpoint on subcultures, artists, and, of course, stories.
