Ink on colored paper begs to be touched. Simple 1–3 color offset lithography can achieve effects similar to silkscreen and letterpress printing. This is the Ohio State Chabad House’s new look book. It’s exciting to pull back from full color printing and design more with less. We had fun collaborating with our amazing intern Christopher on this piece. It is a 3 inks (black, silver, and magenta) printed on Pop-Tone Bubblegum Pink by French Paper. As companies become more frugal I imagine we will see more 1–3 color print pieces.
