Avec is a compact version of the Hobonichi calendar. Avec consists of two, six-month calendars. The yellow notebook covers the months January to June and the blue notebook covers July to December. Each notebook contains monthly, weekly and daily calendars.
Each Avec Cousin notebook contains 288 pages, making it much lighter and thinner than the standard notebook version, which has 544 pages.
Hobonichi Techo - Japan's favourite calendar - was created in 2001 by Shigesato Itoi. Throughout its 23 years of existence, the Hobonichi brand has been constantly changing to respond to the needs of its users, which has earned it the appreciation of millions of users around the world.
The Hobonichi Avec calendar in A5 size includes:
-annual calendar for 2024, 2025 and 2026
-monthly calendar: 1st part: December 2024 - July 2025, 2nd part: June 2025 - January 2026
-Daily calendar: 1st part: January 1 - June 30, 2025, 2nd part: July 1 - December 31, 2025
Each page of the daily calendar includes a to-do list, daily hourly schedule, and space for notes! Each page is printed with a fine 3.7mm grid in 12 colours, with one colour for one month of our planner At the bottom of each page you will find an inspirational quote, as well as a small monthly calendar.
In addition to the calendars, the Hobonichi Techo Avec covering the first half of the year has 8 pages for notes, and the notebook covering the second half of the year has 4 pages. The calendars also include a page for jotting down important contacts, an international size chart and a list where you can write down, for example, 100 things to do this year or 100 books you want to read - it's all up to you!
Starting in 2024, Hobonichi calendars are produced using the new Tomoe River S paper.
In 2023, the machines producing the world's thinnest paper were shut down and production was taken over by Sanzen Paper Manufacturing, which has been producing paper since 1948. This company set itself the goal of replicating the iconic Tomoe River paper as perfectly as possible, but it is impossible for the new machines to produce an identical product. The new Tomoe River S paper has retained all the features that made Tomoe River paper unique, but is enhanced with additional properties.
Tomoe River S paper is:
-more resistant to translucency,
-lighter, while maintaining the same thickness,
-smoother.
Because the paper used for Hobonichi is so thin, the calendar itself remains small in size and weight, despite the large number of pages.
Among the details that make this one of the best-designed calendars in the world is that the way it is sewn allows it to be opened flat at any time, without the need to hold it down. And the rounded corners minimise the risk of bending the pages when carried loosely in a bag or backpack.
Each Hobonichi Techo calendar has its own serial number, giving each notebook an individual touch.
