Bilingual children’s magazine Grilled Cheese — hand-printed, folded, and stapled in Montreal by L’abricot and friends — presents an ambitious use of two-color Risograph printing and takes advantage of its silkscreen-like overlay effect to craft brown from blue and orange, perfect for a woodburning session in the dark.

Project Description
Created in Montreal, Grilled Cheese is a bilingual (French and English) kid's magazine printed on a risograph. The first issue (Issue O) is a camping theme and is aimed for children aged 3 to 8. We were very fortunate to work with talented illustrators who did an incredible job, using only two colors! Each copy comes with an assorted pin.Production Lesson(s)
One should never be in a hurry while printing with a risograph. The ink should have the time to dry completely (24-48 hours) in between each print. If not, the process will be so hazardous!
