Tools To Live By Letterpress Machine Dot Notebook
Description
“A pencil and a dream can take you anywhere”—and this notebook is quietly determined to prove the point. Inspired by the century-old letterpress machine that stands proudly in the Tools To Live By shop in Taipei, this dot notebook carries a little of that history in its bones. The paper is carefully chosen for excellent ink absorption, so your thoughts stay crisp on the page, whether you favour a pencil, a gel pen, or a fountain pen with something to say. Stamped details never smudge, pages never bleed through, and nothing distracts you from the pleasure of putting ideas down. Writing, sketching, planning, collaging—it all feels welcome here. A notebook designed to notice the beauty of everyday moments, and give them somewhere worth staying.
