Hobonichi Techo HON A5 2027 - V&A Series: Vine

Part of Hobonichi's V&A Series, this A5 HON planner features an elegant botanical illustration on the cover. A piece from the Victoria & Albert Museum collection, Vine (1873) depicts ripe grape clusters entwined in lush leaves. A quote along the bottom of the front cover reads: "Have nothing in your houses that you do not know to be useful or believe to be beautiful."

The Hobonichi Techo HON has the same contents as the Techo Cousin A5 book, but with a hardcover design that doesn't require a separate cover. The thread-stitched binding ensures the planner lays flat when open, offering both durability and ease of use, while an included pencil board serves both as a page marker and as a hard-surface with which to write on. The 2027 year is stamped in foil on the spine, so it can be easily spotted on a bookshelf among previous HONs. 

Each day is given its own page, segmented on the left-hand side in time-of-day increments. At the top of each page is a row of check boxes, suitable for a daily to-do list or for habit tracking, while Hobonichi's signature quotes are featured at the bottom. The fountain pen-friendly Tomoe River paper features a 3.7mm grid, and each month's pages have tabs printed in a different color for easy identification.
