Masterclass MEaningful manuals for millennials with

Henning Wagenbreth

During this three-day Masterclass at Graphic Matters 12 selected creative professionals – talented illustrators or graphic designers – worked on the theme ‘Meaningful Manuals for Millenials’. This led to manuals for fictional products or odd situations. The manuals were Risoprinted on the spot in a collective magazine in a limited edition. The Masterclass was hosted by Marjolein Schalk of Wobby.club and renowned ‘special guest’ artist/illustrator Henning Wagenbreth.

Special thanks to Riso Benelux for letting us use one of their Risograph printers & Keep an Eye Foundation for making this masterclass possible.
