Hobonichi Techo HON 2027 A5 – V&A Series: Vine

HON / A5 Size / Daily / ENG / Jan start / Mon start

The Hobonichi Techo, created in collaboration with the V&A (Victoria and Albert Museum, London), celebrates the much-loved Arts and Crafts patterns of William Morris and his creative companions. Drawing from the museums unparalleled collections, each techo combines iconic designs with the Hobonichi Techos signature style.

The cover featuresVine, with ripe grape clusters entwined in lush leaves. Originally designed in 1873 for a hand-printed wallpaper, the design reflects William Morris love of nature and its influence on the Arts and Crafts Movement.

To reflect the artistry behind the design, the cover is printed on a canvas-like material, which preserves the sketch lines and ink variations of the original.

Gold-foil embossing bears Morris’ famous words: Have nothing in your houses that you do not know to be useful or believe to be beautiful.

The contents are the same as the Hobonichi Techo Cousin. The A5-size HON includes vertical weekly pages, allowing you to plan each week on a two-page spread.

Like the Hobonichi Techo, the HON features thread-stitched binding, so it opens flat at 180 degrees and stays that way no need to hold the pages down.

The pages are made of thin and light yet durable Tomoe River paper that holds ink well, providing a smooth writing experience.

The back of the techo contains bonus pages. The English edition features standard favorites like My 100, Favorites, and the 365 Days Check-Off Sheet, alongside new additions like Phrases to Break That Writers Block, Hard-to-Translate Japanese Words, and the Hobonichis Neighborhood: Kanda/Jinbo-cho Map. The Japanese edition includes standard favorites like My 100, Favorites, and Solar Terms, as well as new additions like Phrases to Break That Writers Block, Useful Sign Language Phrases to Know, and the Hobonichis Neighborhood: Kanda/Jinbo-cho Map.

We also offer apencil board with a 5 mm grid, designed exclusively for the HON.
Note: Starting with the 2027 edition, the pencil board is sold separately.
