    Hi, my name's Damian!

    I'm a chemistry teacher and during lockdown I wanted to design a notebook for myself that reflected my passion for science.

    Then my friends asked for one. Then friends of friends. Then dozens of people I didn't know.

    Thanks for reading and please message if you’ve any questions,

    Fountain pen friendly paper!

    These notebooks look great, yes, and are well-made, but most importantly to a fountain pen nerd like me the paper is great. Lovely and smooth, shows off shading and sheening, and no bleedthrough or feathering even with a broad wet nib.

    First off; it’s beautiful. The images used as stunning! The feel is beautiful. Also since i use a fountain pen to write with the paper is of a weight that means that the ink doesn’t ‘bleed’ through the page. I’m using it as a reflection journal and i look forward to using it going forward and would recommend to colleagues as well!

    A note book is a note book. The difference is, this notebook has a really lovely cover. However is it worth the purchasing cost. I couldnt justify purchasing one every time i need a replacement. But it is well made.

    Personally, paper's a bit thin, but ink doesn't fully bleed through. The aesthetic of the book is delightful, and cover feels good quality. Overall, it's a great gift and looks lovely on the shelf when not in use.

    my husband loves this gift which arrived perfectly packaged, the illustrations are flawless, great endpages, ribbon bookmark, great 'feel' to the material used, received fairly quickly to US. only problem we noted is now we both want a lot more and we will have to write/draw faster so we can! Yay! Damian-you definitely filled a niche that was needed!!!

    Lovely quality

    These are a slightly fun spin that is not too frivolous to bring out in front of clients. The paper quality is good, so pens don't bleed or show through and I like the choice. Very often, amongst my notetaking, I have to do quick pen drawings of buildings (naturally square!) in front of clients in order to understand their wishes. The pale feint squares greatly assist! Thank you for elevating my work experience.

    Awe inspiring

    I am never left staring at a blank waiting for inspiration when using these notebooks! The moment I look at the cover, the beauty of my subject, the joy of understanding fills my mind. Science in all its varieties has filled my heart since I first sat awed in wonder with an illustrated encyclopaedia showing dinosaurs, stars, atoms, rockets and so much more … for me these notebooks magically reignite that experience.

    thank you so much for wrtiing this, David. A lovely review.

    deep space

    This is a distinctive notebook with an astronomical cover done appropriately in the colours of space. The front papers are also elegant and the quality of the whole book is high. Nice end papers would be a bonus, and I think squared paper would be a good option for a science-themed notebook. Well packaged for delivery.

    8mm SPACED LINES, THANK YOU!!

    I have been looking for so long for a decent hardback journal with a good amount of pages, quality paper, and most importantly, 8 MILLIMETRE SPACED LINES!! For some reason, every other journal has 7mm spaced lines as standard, or even smaller, and this is just too tight for my larger handwriting - my writing needs room to breathe. On top of this, your journals have no extra faff inside, just lovely lined paper and quality interesting cover designs to boot! I could not be happier and will be ordering another for the future and will be merrily writing my thoughts down in these little beauties.

    Beautiful Notebook
