Furukawa Shiko One Word Fusen — Japanese Sticky Notes

One Word Fusen are small sticky notes built around a simple idea: sometimes a full note is too much, and a sticky note with nothing on it feels a little cold. Furukawa Shiko's solution is a 30-sheet pad of illustrated notes, each finished with a single playful image, designed to carry a short message — a thank you, a reminder, a “saw this and thought of you” — without needing to write more than a few words.

Each sheet measures about 73 x 65mm, mounted on a small backing card that's easy to keep in a drawer, pencil case, or tote. The Shiba Inu design is the one people tend to photograph before they've even paid for it. Made from paper, printed in Japan, and just as happy stuck to a monitor as tucked into someone's notebook.
