October is full of book fairs where we will showcase our latest publications, as well as selections from our backlist. We have been to Wiels Art Book Fair, Miss Read Berlin art book fair, and are now on our way to the Frankfurter Buchmesse and look forward to Offprint Paris and DRUK at Paradiso in Amsterdam.

It's here! We are excited to share the new 2024-2025 catalogue with you, filled with recent launches and offering a look into what publications are to come in the near future. The design and beautiful new cover image are by designer Montse Hernàndez i Sala.

Jap Sam Books and TU Delft OPEN Publishing would like to announce the expansion of their partnership to co-publish journals and books. These publications will be digitally published by TU Delft OPEN Publishing with an open license. Jap Sam Books is the publisher of the physical copies of these publications, which will be available to customers through its sales channels worldwide. This partnership started out with the academic journal Footprint and will now be accompanied with the Ecologies of Architecture Book Series, with more to come.

The Best Dutch Book Designs of 2023 are here!!

This year 5(!) of the 33 titles selected by the professional jury are publications by Jap Sam Books, what a crazy amount. On top of that, 2 of these titles are also selected by the student jury. Many thanks to both of the Best Dutch Book Designs juries.
