Embrace the perfect balance of structure and freedom with the MIDORI MD Notebook (A7, Grid). Inspired by traditional Japanese Genko Yoshi (manuscript paper), this notebook features a 5mm grid layout with subtle gaps between the squares. The lines are printed in a light, unobtrusive blue, ensuring they provide a clear guide for writing and technical drawing without distracting from your creative sketches.
Despite its compact A7 size, this notebook is built to professional standards. It features the legendary MD PAPER, which is meticulously crafted to prevent ink from feathering or bleeding through, making it a favourite for fountain pen enthusiasts. The thread-stitched binding allows the 176 pages to lay completely flat, providing a smooth, uninterrupted surface for your ideas. Small enough to fit in a pocket but durable enough to last a lifetime, this grid notebook is designed to eventually take its place on your bookshelf like a special, tiny volume of your own history.

【ABOUT THE BRAND】
Rooted in Japan under celebrated stationery house Designphil Inc., MD PRODUCT traces its heritage back to the 1960s with the creation of original MD PAPER. Born from an uncompromising dedication to the comfort and tactile pleasure of handwriting, the brand has evolved from a paper pioneer into an advocate for Yohaku (余白)—the art of creating intentional margins in time, thought, and daily life. Guided by the design philosophy of "Refined by Subtraction," every piece strips away unnecessary ornamentation to foster mindful pause, honest self-reflection, and creative calm.
The brand specialises in fountain-pen-friendly MD Paper Notebooks and pads, celebrated for their exposed cheesecloth lay-flat bindings and bleed-resistant, FSC®-certified paper that delivers an exquisite balance of smooth ink absorption and tactile nib feedback. Expanding beyond classic notebooks, MD PRODUCT also crafts structured daily diaries, multi-year record books, minimalist desk interior tools, and tactile protective covers in vegetable-tanned leather and wax paper. Each product honors unadorned materials in their purest form, offering writers and creators around the world an enduring sanctuary to slow down and simply be themselves.
