RiSOBARRiO
Open RiSO workshop
The open RiSO workshop in Frankfurt-Bockenheim: Design your own prints using the environmentally friendly RiSO process, which inspires a vibrant DIY community worldwide. With hands-on, professional guidance, we share our enthusiasm for this colorful and sustainable technology.
Every second Tuesday of the month from 5 to 8 p.m., you can design and print your own ideas. Whether it's wedding invitations or business cards for the shop around the corner, concert posters or flyers for your club, art projects or Christmas gifts—the workshop is ideal for small print runs, experiments, and test prints.
FAQ – How the open printing workshop works
What you can print
In the printing workshop, you can print single-sided with one or two colours on normal to medium-weight paper (80–150 g/m²) in DIN A3 format. Coloured paper is also available. Unfortunately, borderless printing is not possible. The maximum print area is slightly smaller than A3 (287 × 410 mm). We print small runs of 5 to a maximum of 20 sheets with you.
No prior knowledge required
You don't need any prior knowledge. Craft materials are available, and we are happy to help you realise your ideas.
Analogue or digital
If you have your own designs, please feel free to bring them along. Whether it's a drawing, collage, printout or digital photo, we will work with you to see how your analogue and digital designs can be realised with the Riso.
For advanced users
Do you already have finished designs or even print data? No problem! We will check them together for feasibility and will be happy to share our experience with you.
No registration required
Registration is not required. However, our capacity is limited to around 15 people. If you would like to participate, please arrive on time if possible.
Free of charge
Prints made in the print workshop are free of charge. We would of course be delighted to receive a donation. If you would like to print a larger number of copies on request, you will be asked to contribute towards the cost price.
