A Masterpiece for Your Family's Legacy
Have you ever wanted to truly know your family history—not just names on a chart, but the stories, places, people, and decisions that shaped who you are today? If you’re looking for a stunning, heirloom-quality coffee table book that brings your family history to life through stories, photographs, documents, and deep genealogical research, you’re in the right place.
We specialize in creating custom family history books—lavishly designed, historically rich, and meant to last for generations. These are not templated scrapbooks or ancestry printouts. They’re true works of art: part biography, part historical record, and part visual archive. And they are unlike anything else on the market.
Our bespoke family history projects are designed to uncover, organize, and preserve your lineage at a level of depth and beauty that is simply unmatched. Think multi-generational genealogical research, oral histories gathered from relatives around the world, restored photographs, and professionally written, emotionally resonant narratives—all brought together in one extraordinary volume.
This is far more than a family tree. This is your family's biography.
What You Can Expect
Each book is a two-year collaboration involving a dedicated team of specialists across research, writing, photography, archival work, design, and production. Pricing typically begins at US$225,000.
Your dedicated team may include:
-
Professional genealogists conducting deep multi-generational research across local, national, and international archives
-
In-country researchers accessing foreign church records, civil registries, land deeds, and cemetery archives
-
Specialists in DNA triangulation to verify ancestral connections
-
Interviewers conducting unlimited oral history sessions with family members, in-person or via video
-
Historians placing your family story in broader political, cultural, and regional context
-
Archivists traveling to homes, attics, and offices to scan, digitize, and catalog family documents and photos
-
Photo restoration experts using advanced tools to repair water damage, remove blemishes, and color-correct historical photographs
-
Writers crafting engaging, emotionally resonant narratives for each branch of the family
-
Editors ensuring clarity, tone consistency, and historical accuracy across the manuscript
-
Translation specialists converting historical records into English or preserving dual-language presentation when desired
-
Graphic designers typesetting hundreds of pages into museum-quality layouts
-
Art directors curating visual flow and overseeing aesthetic cohesion (our lead designer has worked on books for six Nobel Prize recipients)
-
Cartographers designing custom family maps that trace migrations, properties, and geopolitical changes over time
-
Family tree designers creating elegant, fold-out genealogical charts
-
Bookbinders and printers producing large-format, archival-grade hardcovers using luxury materials
-
Metadata and cataloging consultants for inclusion in family foundations, private libraries, or institutional collections
We also handle fact-checking, permissions clearance, photo captioning, image sourcing, historical timeline creation, and customized supplemental inserts (e.g., vellum overlays, handwritten letters, or pullout documents). Our team will pull out all the stops to ensure your family story is as accurate and expansive as it is beautiful.
A Legacy Worth Displaying
At the end of this journey, your story is preserved in a large-format, luxury-bound book—often in linen, leather, or custom materials—with options for embossed family crests, vellum inserts, foldouts, and archival-grade paper. These volumes are designed not just to be read, but displayed, cherished, and passed on.
Many clients also use these books to:
-
Celebrate a milestone birthday or anniversary
-
Establish a unifying legacy for future generations
-
Preserve oral histories and traditions before they’re lost
-
Create an art-quality centerpiece for their home or estate
-
Document an art collection or philanthropic legacy

We don't just deliver books. We deliver identity, memory, and meaning. And we do it with discretion, empathy, and excellence.
