Background & The "avec" Split-Book Concept:

All the creative freedom of the classic 1-page-per-day planner—at half the thickness and weight! While the standard full-year Hobonichi Original contains all 365 days in a single 14mm thick volume, the avec divides the year into two sleek, 6-month booklets (Jan–Jun and Jul–Dec).

The "avec" system is especially celebrated among scrapbookers, memory keepers, and collage artists.

Because you carry only six months at a time, pasting photos, stickers, ticket stubs, and thick watercolor paper will never cause your planner to bulge out of its cover or become too heavy for your daily bag.

Each slim booklet fits perfectly into any standard Hobonichi A6 cover (or can be paired with a second notebook inside a double-pocket cover).

Printed on fountain pen-friendly Tomoe River paper and engineered with a 180-degree lay-flat stitch binding, the avec offers the ultimate combination of portability and daily journaling capacity.

💡 Manufacturer Notice & Tomoe River Paper Care (知っておいてほしいこと):

• Ink Compatibility & Drying Characteristics: "Tomoe River for Planners" paper is engineered for thinness and smooth glide. Depending on ink formulation, nib wetness, or ambient humidity, some fountain pen inks and gel rollers may require slightly longer drying times or show subtle shadowing on the reverse side. Testing in an inconspicuous back memo page or using a pencil board (shitajiki) and blotting paper is recommended for wet pens.
