What are risograph prints?

Risograph prints are one of a kind. Riso printing is spot colour based uses soy bean oil instead of a toner. One of the main characteristics is that riso printers will only print one colour at a time which, like in screen printing, will create unique textures that cannot be replicated.

One of the first studios where the riso movement originated years ago was in the Netherlands, where We Are Out of Office are from.
