The Publishing House
The teNeues brand, which originally emerged as an independent publishing house from the family-run printing company founded by Dr. Heinz teNeues in Krefeld in 1931, has been part of Die Gestalten Verlag GmbH und Co. KG since November 2024.
For decades, teNeues has specialized in high-quality and exclusive photography, travel, nature, architecture, design, lifestyle, culture and art illustrated books. teNeues works with renowned international photographers, including icons of image creation such as Elliott Erwitt, Edward Quinn, Thomas Hoepker and Paul Almasy, but also with contemporary masters of photography who are shaping the image of our present, such as Phil Penman, Andreas Bitesnich, Christophe Jacrot, Serge Ramelli, Jimmy Nelson, Vincent Peters, Marsel van Oosten and Julian Lennon.
Another focus of the teNeues publishing program is the cooperation with large companies and brands, such as BMW, Ferrari, Porsche, Cartier, Chopard and Swarovski. The resulting illustrated books, often in several languages, are successful in over 50 countries worldwide.
