MD Notebook (A5)

The notebook that gets out of your way. Lays flat, writes smooth, zero distractions.

Why This Exists

Made in Japan by Midori, paper specialists since 1950. This is the MD Notebook — designed for people who think on paper. Writers, designers, planners, anyone who needs a tool that stays out of the way while you create.

Every detail is engineered for comfort: the pen glides across MD PAPER, the thread-stitched binding lays completely flat, and the unbranded cover becomes whatever you need it to be. It's been trusted by original thinkers for over 15 years because it does one thing perfectly: makes writing effortless.

What Makes It Good

• Lays flat — thread-stitched binding
• MD Paper — fountain-pen friendly, zero bleed
• 176 pages — months of use
• Minimal cover — unbranded glassine you can customize
• Includes extras — bookmark string and index stickers

Who This Is For

Perfect for journaling, daily planning, project notes, sketching, or capturing the next big idea. If you think better with a pen in your hand, this is your notebook.

Available in three formats: Lined for writing, Blank for sketching, Grid for structure.

Specifications

Note: This is the notebook that serious writers and thinkers keep coming back to—not because it's fancy, but because it disappears the moment you start using it. No wrestling with bindings, no ink bleeding through, just you and your ideas.
