About
We are Dasha & Diede from Studio Vlinderboom.
We are a small press, riso, and illustration studio from Amsterdam. Our studio values are playful design, sustainable printing, well-crafted, tactile objects, and a sprinkle of love and whimsy!
We make illustrations, risoprinted products, and zines. Studio Vlinderboom also offers risograph printing workshops in Amsterdam for beginners and experienced printmakers. More information about our zine-making, cards and poster workshops are here.
Our story began at art academy where we were randomly paired up to collaborate on a project. That collab brought us so much joy that we have been working together ever since.
When we graduated, we were joined in our studio by the old Risograph named Rita. She was discarded from the academy's printmaking workshop and was gifted to us with one condition: "If you can carry it out of the building, you can have it!"
She served us for another 3 good years! But in summer 2026 she retired and with the help of our community, we acquired a new Risograph of a newer model. We named her Riri :)
And so our journey with the trio began in 2023 :)
Location
You can find us in room 3.6 of Broedplaats Baggerbeest. A breeding ground for creatives built on the new neighbourhood called Sluisbuurt, on Zeeburgereiland.
