Community Printshop

Bringing visual design into the material world.

The d.school Community Printshop is Stanford’s hands-on learning space for visual design, print production, and book arts. 

We provide a space to experiment with transforming visual designs into physical media through a combination of old and new techniques, including Risograph and letterpress. Our space is open to students, staff, and faculty at Stanford, and we provide the training and tools to guide users through the design and printing process.
