Since its founding in 1963, Hennessey + Ingalls has grown to fill a unique niche in American retailing. Our store is now the largest art and architecture bookstore in the western United States, and it is probably the largest retail operation in the country dealing just with books on the visual arts. The business was founded by Reginald Hennessey as an outlet for rare and out-of-print architecture 
books and is still family- owned and managed.  We are pleased to count many of the area's and the country's leading architectural firms as our clients, along with museums, collectors, art galleries, students, interior designers, graphic design firms, and schools. We are the primary book supplier to three large academic art libraries in Southern California, as well as to smaller schools and corporate libraries around the country. In short, Hennessey + Ingalls has proven itself over the years through the combination of unequalled stock and most attentive customers service to be a successful and valued member of the vibrant art, architecture, and design communities here in Southern California and beyond.

Spend your vacation at Hennessey's!

Few places allow to travel through time periods, a complete history of architecture, design, photography, art in all its dimensions as Hennessey. If you're low on funds but still want to discover the world, spend some hours here.
