HOBONICHI TECHO 2018

Hobonichi Techo Cousin Avec Books
(January Start)
A5 Size (Monday-Start Week, 6-Month x2 Book Set)

JAN START

We first introduced the Avec in response to customers who struggled with bulging books after collecting a year's worth of pasted material in the daily pages. The Avec version splits the same book, design and all, into a 2-book set at six months each, with only slight variances in calendar spans and the number of extra pages in the back. This allows users to fill the pages to their hearts’ content.



Avec book covers come in bright colors to encourage the option of using the book as-is. Book 1 (January-June) is a bright lime yellow and Book 2 (July-December) is a cool ice blue.



See here for detailed, illustrated information.

When you purchase the planner in the online Hobonichi Store, the book comes with two free Hobonichi Store exclusives: a pair of “Meal Decider Dice” and a ballpoint pen.



The Hobonichi Techo book can be paired with our wide variety of cover designs, so take a look and pick out your favorite!

Test fountain pens before regular use

The Hobonichi Techo's Tomoe River paper is designed to prevent bleed-through, but some fountain pens and water-based ink pens are not compatible with this paper. When switching to a new pen, we recommend testing the pen somewhere in the book, such as the back memo pages, to see if the ink bleeds through or takes an especially long time to dry.
