SCHRIFTONIndependent Publishing
& Media House
Stories take different forms.
Schrifton is an Independent Publishing & Media House in Berlin, working across Books, Film, Music, Sound, Journal and Research.
We develop work from the idea outward, asking which form allows it to become fully itself.
We don't begin with a format.
We begin with something worth giving form to.
Our editorial approach connects publishing, film, music, sound and research. Some work originates within Schrifton; other work grows through collaboration with writers, filmmakers, musicians, researchers and institutions.
Intellectual seriousness and public accessibility are not opposites.
