A Sketchbook Designed for Creatives, by Creatives

There’s no faster, more intuitive way to retain information, organize thoughts, or explore new ideas than by putting pen to paper. For decades, we've crafted notebooks and diaries, continuously refining every detail — from the perfect size and paper quality to the durability of the binding — ensuring they stand the test of time.

For our newest sketchbook, we've partnered with our friends at Atelier Carvalho Bernau. After two years of rigorous material testing, model iterations, and real-world use, we’re proud to introduce what we believe to be the ideal sketchbook.

Thoughtfully designed to prioritize ideas and inspire unrestricted creativity, this minimalist sketchbook is both durable and refined. It’s available in two versions: one with a dotted grid, and another with plain pages. Each contains 192 smooth, 100-gram pages, with every 16th page colored to create visual sections. The sketchbook’s sturdy cardboard cover, linen spine, and cold-glue stitched binding ensure it will stand up to years of use, while laying flat when opened. Produced in the Netherlands.

This is the sketchbook we designed for ourselves — and we trust it will work beautifully for you too.
