About

A publishing house for culturally resonant books.

ERG Media is a publishing house based in Milan and Tokyo. We make books on automotive culture, Japanese craft, design and travel, and we make every one of them ourselves.

House of Okajima: The Art of Japanese Fabric

Who we are

ERG takes its name from its founder, Edward R. Gushue. The standard comes from the work: strong photography, careful writing, and design made to be cherished for generations.

ERG began in 2017 as a creative agency, working with brands across automotive, design, fashion and luxury. In 2022 we turned our full attention to books.

Every title is made in-house, from the first idea to the files that go to print. Editors, photographers and designers work on each book together, which is how the quality stays consistent across everything we publish.

How we work

Made in-house, start to finish.

01
Photography
Shot or sourced for each book, then edited and sequenced so the pictures carry the story.
02
Writing
Reporting and essays that give every subject its context.
03
Layout
Pages built around the material, never a template.
04
Design
Typography, covers, paper and binding, chosen for the book in hand.
