The Hobonichi Graph Notebook was released in 2019 to fulfill customer demand for a standard notebook that closely resembles the renowned Hobonichi Techo.

This cover design is made in collaboration with an artwork by picture book author and illustrator Keiko Shibata.

Are the cats in a welcoming mood, or are they trying to see if they can let the guest inside?A unique scene from their daily life is rendered with a warm touch of oil pastel. The back cover is as red as the door, with Keiko Shibata’s autograph printed.
