The Nouto Nombre Notebook is what happens when old-school craftsmanship meets modern note-taking habits—and they get on famously. Originally brought to life through a hugely successful Makuake crowdfunding project, this general release edition is the result of collaboration between devoted notebook users and a 109-year-old Japanese bookbinding factory that knows a thing or two about paper behaving properly.

At the heart of the Nombré notebook is its special Codex binding, allowing the notebook to open a full 180 degrees and lie completely flat—no wrestling, no spring-back, no irritated sighs. The bi-colour cover adds a quietly contemporary touch, while inside you’ll find carefully chosen Seibundo paper: thin yet dependable, designed specifically for notebooks and resistant to slipping or shifting over time.

Thoughtfully optimised for bullet journalling and structured organising, every page is printed with page numbers and a flexible 5mm dotted grid, giving you freedom without chaos. It’s a notebook that gently encourages order, without ever insisting upon it.
