PUBLISH

With decades of experience in the publishing and printing industries, we understand how powerfully a message can be conveyed.

PRINT

We offer world-class prepress, on-site press management, printing resources, and hands-on quality-control checking of all projects under production—we believe strongly in the craft of book making and are heavily invested in this critical aspect of the print media environment. 

Thanks to this approach throughout the past 30 years, Applied Research + Design has produced some of the most important books in the illustrated-book marketplace.

DISTRIBUTE

Applied Research + Design Publishing is based in the San Francisco Bay Area providing services in design, editorial, production, and marketing through satellite offices in Los Angeles, Montreal, Singapore, Buenos Aires, Hong Kong, and Shenzhen positioning us to flexibly work closely with clients and to reach international audiences. Our growing collection of books is distributed worldwide through our global distribution network that features localized warehousing across five continents.

Applied Research + Design Publishing offers a network of distribution hubs, strategically located across each major geographical region, with unique, locally focused, book-selling representatives who are continuously engaged in the marketing, distribution, and sales of our publications throughout their respective areas of influence. This network is unique amongst design publishers and provides our clients with an extraordinary advantage, which other publishers are simply not offering.
