Pocko

Pocko is an independent press and a creative agency headquartered in London, with offices in Los Angeles, and Milan. Pocko has three main fields of operation: publishing - under their publishing arm, Pocko Editions; a communication and creative consultancy, Pocko Lab; and a talent agency, Pocko People - representing illustrators, graphic designers, animators and photographers. Pocko works with contemporary artists and forward thinking brands to create meaningful content and brand activation.

Pocko was founded in 1999 by Royal College of Arts photography graduate, Nicola Schwartz. Pocko’s first initiative was the Pocko Collection in collaboration with Diesel in 2002, a series of pocket size books composed by different artists. The mini books with ten titles showcased talented illustrators and photographers, with a few designed as pull out postcards. The books were retailed in Selfridges, and were the first selection of widely distributed art to combine publishing with brand communication.

Pocko Labs' former clients have included a variety of international companies from Disney, MTV, Paramount Comedy 1, the New York Times, Chronicle Books, BMW Oracle Racing, to Eni and IBM. One of Pocko´s specialities is providing solutions for the design, fashion, and retail industry. Major clients in the industry include household names such as Iittala, Gas Jeans, Comme des Garcons, Marc Jacobs, Cacharel, Alexander McQueen, Diesel, Selfridges, L'Oréal, and Top Shop. Pocko has also created work for charities such as National Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children and the Bambino Gesù Hospital, a noted children's hospital in Rome.
