This is a risograph print. Risograph printers look like photocopiers, but work as screen printers; using rich spot colors and stencils to create tactile and vibrant prints, affordably and with little impact on our environment. The texture is everything in riso! Due to the unreliable nature of riso prints- prints vary and may have some misalignments between layers. Every print is unique!

Risograph printing is a unique, eco-friendly printing technique that combines the charm of traditional screen printing with the efficiency of digital duplication. Known for its vibrant colors, rich textures, and distinct imperfections, risograph printing uses soy-based inks and stencil-based layering to create bold, high-contrast designs with a tactile, handmade feel.

Originally developed for high-volume office printing, risograph printing has been embraced by artists and designers for its affordability, sustainability, and unpredictable beauty. Each print is slightly different, with misalignments and ink variations adding to its character. Perfect for zines, posters, art prints, and stationery, risograph printing brings a dynamic, retro-inspired aesthetic to modern design.
