We first introduced the Avec in response to customers who struggled with bulging books after collecting a year's worth of pasted material in the daily pages. The Avec version splits the A5 Hobonichi Techo Cousin, design and all, into books of six months each with only slight variances in calendar spans and the number of extra pages in the back.
This allows you to fill the pages to your heart’s content with scheduling, diaries, little notes, tickets, photographs, doodles, and anything that strikes your fancy.
The ice blue book cover is sturdy, making it perfect for use as-is without storing in a cover. And because it's lightweight, it's perfect for carrying around with you.
The Hobonichi Techo Cousin Avec Book has special stitch-binding that allows the book to lay completely flat without having to hold it down.
The Avec Cousin can also be used with the A5 Hobonichi Techo covers, which provide extra features and come in a variety of colors and designs.
