Misregistration, ink bleed, and grain are features, not bugs. The beauty of risograph lies in its happy accidents and organic inconsistencies.
Each color is a separate pass through the machine. Design with overprinting in mind, letting colors mix and create new tones where they overlap.
Work within constraints. A limited color palette forces creativity and creates cohesion. Two or three spot colors can achieve remarkable range.
Risograph emerged from the independent publishing scene. Maintain that grassroots, accessible, punk-inspired energy in every design decision.
