We are on the move. In all sorts of directions, but with a single, great idea: using books to stir emotions. Our group, a versatile 21st-century “factory” consisting of many members – some permanent, some variable – revolves around this idea. Stories to comics, essays to photography, verging on design objects, our books are printed in limited editions, rare pieces made with meticulous attention to detail. Fine paper, creative bindings, skillfully rendered illustrations, expressive images and well-written, always interesting texts. Fermoeditore feeds the eyes, the sense of touch and the imagination, in order to nourish the spirit and awaken the mind.
