Risograph Zine
I found a poem titled “The Beauty of Imperfecton” by an unknown author and feel like it embodies how I live my life as someone who struggles with perfectionism. As I continue in my graphic design career, and especially with the rise of artificial intelligence, I have realized that good design is innately human and that imperfections are a part of that.
This zine explores the concept of the beauty of imperfection through the placement of the lines in the poem, the font styles and sizes, and the medium of risograph. Printing this zine on the risograph added texture and imperfection into the design.
