The Challenge
To present Banksy’s work to new audiences through a fresh, compelling format that preserves his anonymity while amplifying the raw emotional impact of his art.

Approach
We set out to create an innovative book format that channels the unfiltered, provocative spirit of Banksy—one that feels as rebellious, subversive, and unforgettable as the artist himself. From layout to texture, every page is designed to feel alive, unexpected, and unmistakably Banksy.

Client Testimonial
“Making an art book is no small feat—and creating one that stands out while honoring the legacy of someone as legendary as Banksy was a tall order.
Chuka’s passion and excitement to take on this challenge were refreshing from day one. The final result is both bold and brilliant—we’re thrilled with how it turned out and can’t wait to launch it in December 2025.”
