The Pepin Press

The Pepin Press grew out of Pepin van Roojen's one-man graphic design and book production operation in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. In 1990, the first book under the Pepin Press imprint was published: The History and Culture of Malaysia, published in Malay and English in co-operation with the National Museum in Kuala Lumpur. It was followed by a number of titles on Southeast Asian, Middle Eastern and Chinese architecture, decorative arts and cultural history. In 1994, after some eight years in Asia, Pepin relocated back to his home town, Amsterdam. However, the link with the Far East was never severed: most of our production and much of our warehousing takes place in Asia and we are in the process of again opening an office in Singapore.
