Hobonichi 2026 Japanese Original Avec Books [A6/Jan Start/Mon Start/6-Month x 2]
Description
Our next batch of Hobonichi items should be ready for sale on our website around 17 October. Please sign up for a back in stock notification to be notified when stock goes live.
Pre-orders: please be aware that there will be a delay before shipment of your order. If your order contains other items, the whole order will be held pending availability of this preorder item.
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 splits the year into books of six months each. Book 1 (January–June) is a bright lime yellow and Book 2 (July–December) is a cool ice blue.
Because it’s split into two books, it’s lightweight which makes it easy to carry around, and it also won’t get bulky even if you paste many things into your techo.
The Avec version splits the one-page-per-day A6 Hobonichi Techo Original, design and all, into books of six months each with only slight variances in calendar spans and the number of extra pages in the back. This allows you to fill the pages to your heart’s content with scheduling, diaries, little notes, tickets, photographs, doodles, and anything that strikes your fancy.
The book has the same thread-stitch binding as a dictionary, allowing it to lay flat open for comfortable writing. It stays flat even if you don’t hold it down.
The book uses thin and light yet durable Tomoe River paper. It's characterized by its ability to hold ink well and provide a smooth writing experience.
Other than the daily pages with lots of space to write, the book contains several sections that are great for schedule management, such as a yearly calendar, monthly calendar, and yearly index page. The back of the book has bonus pages, including Memories 2026, 12 Switches to Help You Focus, and For a Comfortable Night’s Sleep.
The Hobonichi Techo is used by pairing a techo book with a cover. Pick out a cover of your choice from our large selection of Hobonichi Techo covers.
