Hobonichi Weeks Book is Tall and Slim, with a Weekly Layout

The weekly edition Hobonichi Techo is a compact book that’s easy to carry everywhere. The book is slim and roughly the size of a long wallet, making it easy to fit into a bag or suit pocket. The main layout of the book consists of a weekly calendar on the left page and blank graph paper on the right page. Each weekly spread also contains the characteristic Hobonichi quote at the bottom of the page. Although slim at first glance, the book holds plenty of graph-ruled memo pages for note-taking at the end of the book. The Weeks is available with a variety of different cover designs on the book itself and does not require an additional cover purchased separately

Design Details

Printed with calligrapher Yuichi Inoue’s interpretation of Kenji Miyazawa’s poem “Be not Defeated by the Rain.” In order to convey the strength of the calligraphy written in charcoal, the cover is made from a fabric that feels like canvas. As a bonus item, a Hobonichi Pencil Board which showcases the entire calligraphy or “Amenimo Makezu,” is included. The cover has been constructed as a light hardcover book with some give to it so it still bends.
