Walk Don’t Walk
Get the book of our greatest hits! Walk Don’t Walk is our biggest project yet – a collection of diverse artwork by some of Scotland’s most exciting artists, comic makers and illustrators.
Sustainably riso printed using 10 inks, 18,000 sheets of paper and 144,000 print passes, in a limited edition of 500 copies.
Out of the Blueprint is a social enterprise in Leith
Our specialty is sustainable RISO and GOCCO printing – affordable, eco-friendly print with a unique aesthetic. We print posters, flyers, artwork, booklets, T-shirts and tote bags for our local community.
We reinvest the profits we make from our print service to support our core aim – to help young people. We do this through providing traineeships, residencies, exhibitions and educational projects, and supporting young people to pursue their own creative projects.
