Standards Manual is an independent publishing imprint founded by designers Jesse Reed and Hamish Smyth in New York City in 2014.
Their mission is to archive and preserve artifacts of design history and make them available to current practitioners and future generations. From reprinted graphics standards manuals to new compendiums of archival work, their titles are graphic design-centric.
The partners are both designers and as an independent publisher, they produce books using only the finest papers, printing, and finishing methods.
