Bedford Press is a private press and publisher located in London. Established as an imprint of AA Publications Ltd, the press aims to establish a more responsive model of small-scale publishing, nimble enough to encompass the entire chain of production in one fluid activity, from initial commission to the final printing.
The press includes a print workshop located in Bedford Square equipped with a Ricoh Priport DX 4640PD on which some of the editions are printed. The products of the press include publications as well as ephemera such as pamphlets, posters, and limited edition prints.
Bedford Press was initiated by the Architectural Association in 2008.
Bedford Press editions will be available through the AA Publications online
website from March 2010.

A group of children playing in the schoolyard forming a perfect circle, an abandoned tricycle drawing an infinity sign, and a gathering of Spongebob plastic cups on the dining table: these are some of the found compositions drawn from Informal Meetings, a collection of photographs by Amsterdam based graphic designer Radim Peško, made during travels and wanderings to different cities between 2001 and 2009. The photographs show poetic glimpses of seemingly unremarkable encounters between space and architecture that suggest their own stories.
