Story

While we are in Japan we spend a lot of time in book stores, they are our favourite places to get lost for a few hours. We first discovered Peake's work a while back and were delighted when we came across his book of Hotel drawings on our travels through book stores in Tokyo earlier this year. We are so delighted to be able to offer some of his limited edition works and our fav hotel drawings collection. Each one is in very limited numbers.
