Description

1623 is the lined edition of our 16 × 23 cm book: the same portrait format and binding as the sketchbook, with 120 gsm cream paper ruled for writing.

It is sewn by hand in sections and opens flat on the desk, so both pages of a spread can be written on right up to the spine. Room for notes, drafts and plans that outgrow an A5.

Construction & Materials

The 1623 notebook uses 120 GSM cream woodfree writing paper (PenPerfect), printed with lines.

The block is sewn by hand in sections and opens flat across the desk, so the lines run to the spine without tension at the gutter.
