Product Description

From Hobonichi description:

We created the Hobonichi Graph Notebook in response to requests for a standard notebook that feels just like the Hobonichi Techo. This cover was created in collaboration with illustrator Hiroko Kubota’s work. Another night of falling star sparklers was a popular design for the 2024 edition Hobonichi Techo Weeks.

A dark, nightly landscape surrounded by the quiet air. If you listen closely, you might just hear the soft sound of the cat’s sparklers burning away.
The fireworks from the sparklers are depicted in aurora-colored foil, and the color shifts based on the angle at which you view the artwork, shining delicately as it catches your eye.

At the end of the line connecting the stars, on the back of the cover, there is a fox.
The eyebrows make for an exquisite expression.
At first the eye might go to the illustration of the sky, but the lived-in feeling of the cityscape is just as alluring. This beautiful design encapsulates the warmth and loneliness of a seaside landscape at night.

The notebook has thin and durable Tomoe River paper and opens completely flat. It comes in two sizes: A6 to match the Original, and A5 to match the Cousin. The A6 size notebook is 8mm thick and contains 240 pages, while the A5 size is 10mm thick and contains 288 pages. This gives you plenty of space to fill the notebooks to your heart’s content.

The 3.7 millimeter graph paper is the same as that of the Hobonichi Techo Original and Cousin. The color of the ink on the page changes (red / blue / green / purple) every 60 pages in the A6 size, and every 72 pages in the A5 size. This makes it easy to split the book into several themes or use the colors as a way to more easily find old entries.
