The classic A5 MD notebook by Midori has been designed to fit the sizes of books commonly used in Japan. It is highly suited for both pencils and fountain pens due to its thin, smooth paper. There are no covers and the cheesecloth spine is open, matched with index tabs for organizing. The paper won't feather, bleed through, or wrinkle.
Made in Japan, this simple notebook was designed to create a writing experience that you will enjoy. The high-quality Midori Diary (MD) paper inside was developed in 1960 and has been continuously improved on ever since. Midori has conducted many tests using a variety of writing instruments to inspect the paper quality, including observing whether the ink feathers or bleeds, how it dries, how well the pen tips glide across the surface, how the paper feels to the touch, and so on. As a result, the paper is bleed resistant, feather resistant, and fountain pen friendly, giving the user a pleasant writing experience.
The notebook has a sturdy thread binding that lies flat when open, making it easy to write. It also comes with a ribbon marker to keep your place. The cover is not a typical notebook cover. To feature the charm of the paper itself, the cloth tape used to bind the spine, usually hidden by a cover, is exposed, giving the notebook a unique look. You can even see where the ribbon marker is glued in place. The notebook also comes with sticker labels that can be used to label the notebook.
The Midori MD notebook is a recipient of the 2008 Good Design Award.
