rupa publishing – Design. Photography. Art.

Since 2004, rupa publishing has pursued the philosophy of releasing high-quality and very individual publications from the intersection of Europe and Asia with a main focus on design, photography and art. rupa titles have won several awards: “Bangkok” is the “choice title of the German Photo Book Prize”, is the “Hasselblad semi-finalist” and came 3rd place at the IPA Awards in Los Angeles, the artword® collection received the “red dot award” and was nominated for the Design Award of the Federal Republic of Germany; the “Kim Young-Hee” and “Thailand” photo books were nominated for the German Photo Book Award 2009.

“rupa” rises to the challenge whenever creative paths need to be found and trodden.

Really beautiful and the most beautiful books, calendars and folded cards in top quality with regard to content, design and production. Since 2009, our photo book literature, in the form of “rupa – eBOOK” and post cards in the form of “rupa – eCARD” for iPhone and iPod touch, supplement the diverse range offered by rupa publishing.

“rupa – eBOOK” introduces illustrated literature to iPhone and iPod touch. Exclusive special editions, which are only available for iPhone and iPod touch, now expand our programme. Our “rupa – eBOOK” application is a fully-fledged digital book, which provides the best content, reading comfort and design, the likes of which you are already accustomed to through our photo books, and has been especially developed for the iPhone. The operating elements are especially designed to provide user-friendly handling. The “rupa – eBOOK” navigation is performed via typical iPhone gestures, and individual picture details can be closely examined with the aid of the zoom feature. The “rupa – eBOOK” doesn’t require any additional reading devices!

“rupa – eCARD” post cards can be sent from practically anywhere at anytime via iPhone and iPod touch, even when time is really short. One could summ up the principal of the “rupa – eCARD”: “I’ll be out of town the day after tomorrow. I’m fully booked tomorrow, as you well know. I don’t have time today, sorry. I would have had time yesterday though.”

Books and non-books by rupa publishing are available in all well-stocked, specialised book stores — both nationally and internationally, on our website www.rupapublishing.com or in the Apple iTunes Store.

Our head office is in Munich. Since 2009, we have also established a branch in Bangkok.
