Founded in 1991 by graphic designers Damon Murray and Stephen Sorrell, FUEL began as a London-based design studio and self-published magazine before launching its dedicated book imprint in 2005. The independent publisher has carved out a highly specific niche in visual culture, focusing on overlooked, obscure, and culturally rich subjects. FUEL is best known for its deep dive into Soviet and Eastern European history, producing critically acclaimed titles like the Russian Criminal Tattoo Encyclopaedia series, Soviet Bus Stops, and Soviet Space Dogs.
