WELCOME
 
Acanthus Press publishes at the intersection of
material culture and architectural history. Our
award-winning books chronicle the lost histories
of houses and objects, of clients and designers.
From New York to Los Angeles, from St. Paul to
Miami, Acanthus Press seeks to publish the
undiscovered, the under-appreciated, the rare,
and the exceptional.
