We’ve all deepened our relationships with the grass and trees in our neighbourhood parks of late. Clissold is my local, but rename it what you will. Hyde, Heath, Victoria, Preston… Clissold is an A5 notebook with 236 pages. Choose dot grid, ruled or plain. The notebook begins with a simple printed bookplate for dedicating to your pal, or putting your reward and contact information. We've all got to do our bit to help lost notebooks find their way back home. Two contents pages and numbered pages throughout allow for easy navigation. As you move through the notebook, the page numbers gradually change colour, taking you through the spectrum. The notebook contains 100gsm smooth, fountain pen friendly paper stock with minimal show through. We’ve used lay flat binding so the notebook opens without forcing the spine. This binding method backlines the inner pages within the spine, leaving them free to move. The cover is bound on with front and rear hinges only. The cover is subtly blind embossed with ‘Papersmiths’ on the back and a satisfying thumb print sized monogram to the front.
