Amid exaggerated claims of chat-room unspeakables, the internet was
banned in my home until my mid-adolescence. Frequently grounded during
this time, I ended up getting really interested in zines and mail-order

weeks later containing photocopied confections filled with [illicit]
knowledge about culture, design, music, dishwashing, personal politics,
etc. |

Designer Andrea Manzati is greatly skilled in digital illustration, but it’s her handmade typographic designs that are the most impressive.
