A course by RISOTTO Studio
Gabriella Marcella is a designer and the founder of RISOTTO studio, one of Scotland's longest-running Risograph specialists. While studying an art degree, she did an exchange in New York where she first learned about the Risograph machine and instantly fell in love. Shortly after graduating, she used the money from a start-up award to launch her studio, which is devoted to preserving the power of small-scale artisan crafts as a sustainable alternative to mass-produced paper goods.
RISOTTO specializes in printing services tailored to the creative industry, although it’s best known for its vibrant stationery collections and graphic T-shirts, which can be found on store shelves in almost every continent. The quality of their work, along with their environmentally conscious approach, has led them to collaborate with brands such as Apple, MINI, Puma, and Swatch, as well as on projects ranging from public art commissions to exhibit design. The studio also hosts monthly workshops to introduce people to the art of Riso printing.
