This year, Sakura is welcoming the bright summer sun with an equally vibrant collection of leather-bound hardcover notebooks. The notebooks are available in four shapes (three rectangular and one square) with three different types of paper: dotted, lined and squares.

With their sturdy stitched binding, these notebooks are a reliable companion for organizing your day, putting your thoughts in order, and preserving valuable ideas.

Colors Inspired by Japanese Culture

Each of the intriguing shades selected for the collection is a reference to a traditional Japanese symbol with deep cultural significance.

  • Blackberry: The tree is widely featured in Japanese mythology and is valued for the production of paper and wood products, as well as for feeding silkworms.
  • Indigo: The deep blue hue of indigo (or “samurai blue”) is associated with calmness, mindfulness, and the boundlessness of the sky and the ocean.
  • Amber: This semi-precious stone is believed to carry the warmth and energy of the Sun and protect against evil forces
  • Bor: aa symbol of resilience and longevity in Japanese folklore.
  • Patina: a delicate pale green shade, inspired by traditional Japanese techniques for highlighting the beauty of metal.
  • Japanese rose (keria): The yellow rose symbolizes a new beginning, wealth, and prosperity.
  • Japanese plum (ume): The pink flowers are associated with good luck, vitality, and the strength to endure—just as plum trees endure the cold winter.
  • Ashes: Gray is a typical neutral color, a symbol of peace, balance, and modesty.

High-quality paper for unlimited creativity

Each Sakura notebook contains 80 sheets of relatively thick paper with a weight of 140 gsm. Its neutral white color is easy on the eyes, and its smooth texture makes it ideal for:

Because of their thickness, the sheets can also handle slightly wetter and more absorbent writing and drawing materials, such as ink pens, alcohol-based, acrylic and watercolor markers.

The pages are securely bound and lay completely flat, making it easy to write and draw without distractions.

Notebook for flight planning, journaling, sketching, and more

Whether at dots, rows or squares, the subtle pattern on the pages gives you the freedom to use your notebook for:

  • Planner or organizer: for organizing daily and long-term tasks and goals.
  • A Classic Journal: For Capturing the Morning Flow of Consciousness ( the so-called “morning pages”) or as a Journal of Feelings and Emotions (journaling)
  • Art Journal: Illustrations by Month and Year.
  • Calligraphy andlettering: for creating beautiful inscriptions and typefaces.
  • Language learning: for practicing Chinese characters, for example.
  • Pixel art: filling in the squares to create illustrations and designs.
  • Sketchbook: for creative and meditative doodles to relax the mind.
