In spite of locations at Dover Street Market in London and New York, and the Comme des Garçons Trading Museum in Paris, IDEA Books is perhaps best known for its Instagram.

On a recent trip to London, Chris Black visited co-founder David Owen to speak about their growth, and have a look inside their modest studio.
