This is the English edition of the Hobonichi Techo Cousin, a one-page-per-day techo in A5 size.
Like the Japanese edition of the Cousin, the techo provides one page per day for you to write schedules, journal entries, and notes; paste in tickets and photos; sketch; and much more. The ample space of the Cousin’s daily pages makes it especially easy to use for compiling all your work notes into one book, keeping a parenting diary, or creating a shared journal with someone. Many also use it as a “desk techo” — one that they keep at home or at the office rather than carry around.
The page design is based on a 3.7 mm grid layout, refined through countless adjustments over the years. It’s ideal for writing neat schedules and text, and comes in handy whenever you want to sketch diagrams or illustrations. Just like the Japanese-language edition of the Cousin, each month is printed in a different color.
On each spread of daily pages, you’ll find Daily Quotes in English, which are carefully selected from content on the Hobonichi website. This makes the techo a pleasure to read through as well as write in.
You’ll also find vertical Weekly Pages that are unique to the Hobonichi Techo Cousin. Writing your plans along a vertical timeline makes it easy to manage your schedule on a week-by-week basis.
Thanks to the thread-stitched binding, the techo opens flat at 180 degrees and stays that way — no need to hold the pages down.
The pages are made of thin and light yet durable Tomoe River paper that holds ink well, providing a smooth writing experience.
