Archideos Books is a Free Publisher founded in Milan, Italy in 1998. The Publishing House was started by Giancarlo Gardin, an internationally known architectural photographer. Due to its founder's background, the publishing house Archideos specializes in picture table-books. Most of the pictures that illustrate these books have been taken by its founder.
The books published by Archideos focus entirely on architecture, furnituring and home-designing. Over the years, all the publications have received very positive reviews from both the public and the critique and have become an important term of comparison in the publishing business for books of its format. These books have been selected by the Italian designer Armani to be sold in his multi-stores for several year.
Publications[edit]
The publisher Archideos created two collections of books: Architetti d'Oggi dedicated to the works of some of the most influential contemporary architects and Architetture dei Luoghi dedicated to the architectures of some of the most fascinating and exclusive areas in the world (such as Engadin, Switzerland; Costa Smeralda, Sardinia; and Casa de Campo, Dominican Republic).
All of the Archideos publications have been printed in several editions and translated in different languages (German, Italian, English and Spanish). Case di Sardegna, currently at its 8th edition, has sold over 20,000 copies.
