Hobonichi Pencil Board [Tomitaro Makino]

What is the Pencil Board?

The Hobonichi pencil boards are specially designed to fit the A6 Planner/Original size, A5 Cousin size, and Weeks size. Keeping it underneath the page you’re writing on allows reinforcement and provides an enjoyable writing experience.

Who is it suitable for?

The pencil board is recommended for users who have filled their inner cover pockets with thick items or users who write with a lot of pressure and leave indentations on the opposite pages.

The colours of the back of each pencil board are different, too. The Original size is in yellow reminiscent of dandelions, the Cousin size is green like the stem of the Korogi-ran, and the Weeks size is in purple like a global thistle. One side is labeled by millimeter to act as a metric ruler, and a 'Today' tab on the corner marks the current page if you’d like to use it as a bookmark as well.

You might want to match them with a techo cover or Weeks, designed in collaboration with Dr. Tomitaro Makino’s botanical illustrations. Try the Hobonichi Pencil Board for yourself and you’ll see how great it is to use.
