Search Press is an independent, multi award-winning, family owned art and craft book publisher in the UK.
We specialize in producing beautiful and practical books on knitting and crochet, sewing, needlecraft, art and general crafts for people of all skill levels. The company was founded in 1970 by Charlotte de la Bedoyere, known as Lotti to everyone here at Search Press, in an attic room in Kensington.
In the early 1980s, Lotti moved to Tunbridge Wells, establishing a warehouse and offices in a quiet corner of the North Farm Industrial Estate – where we are today. Then in 1997, following her decision to retire, her son, Martin de la Bedoyere, took over as Managing Director, with his wife Caroline.
With a team of nearly 40 people, many of them long-term employees, Search Press now publishes up to 100 of its own titles each year, as well as distributing books for other publishers.
