isshoni. B5 Size Notebook with Index & Page Numbers - Grid, 96 pages

“Isshoni” means “together” in Japanese, and this B5 notebook carries that idea into its details — the diagonal page numbers work whether you're holding it upright or sideways. Design house DAIGO won a Good Design Award in 2022 for the isshoni series.

What actually surprised us when this notebook first came in was how flat it opens — the thread-bound pages lie completely flat at 180 degrees, no propping required. Inside are 96 pages of soft cream grid paper, with an index and numbered pages to help you find things later. The scratch-resistant plastic cover holds up to daily use, and at 252 × 179 × 6 mm in B5, there's real room to write. Made in Japan.
