Quaderno Notebooks

RISOTTO is a risograph print and design specialist based in Glasgow established by Gabriella Marcella. Riso printing has grown in popularity and is probably the cheapest of the "craft" printing techniques, enabling entry level creative projects to happen. You can read more about Riso printing here: http://justinsamazingworldatfennerpaper.blogspot.co.uk/2014/09/what-is-riso-printing.html 

Risotto has produced this lovely series of eight "Quaderno" notebooks using our Colorset 100% Recycled 270gsm for the cover materials.
Size of these super little notebooks is 180mm x140mm. The 4pp covers are on Colorset and there is a 40pp text. Covers are printed in just one colour (black) on front cover and the reverse
Below image shows detail of the imperfectly perfect result that you achieve with Riso printing. The effect is like a cross between letterpress and silkscreen.
The text pages are printed in a different style for each book.
The notebooks are saddle stitched and well finished.
Thanks to Gabriella for sending me copies and the lovely note...
