Kakimori Hardcover A5 Notebooks

Kakimori created these hardbound notebooks with everyday use in mind. A Smyth-sewn binding ensures each page opens perfectly flat. The pages feature a hand-drawn, light grey grid that is gentle on the eyes and doesn’t stand out when scanned. After you complete the notebook, it fits on a bookshelf and becomes part of a treasured collection over time.

Each of the various notebook designs are limited edition in that they are released for a period of time and then switched out with different fabric. Some details:
