    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,

    The whole concept of these notebooks is top notch - the cover designs, the sturdy construction, and being able to get books with plain paper is another bonus. Thoroughly recommend.

    Beautiful notebooks

    I bought this as a little treat for myself after seeing an ad on instagram and instantly fell in love with the covers. It arrived quite quickly and when i unpacked it i thought it was absolutely gorgeous and a joy to write in. Its also great as it doesnt bleed through since i press down quite hard and i can even use my fancy pen!! Since, i have bought a planner and 2 other notebooks 🫶🏼

    I love my new journal!

    As an avid writer i use a number of different pens. My favourite is my fountain pen. The problem i had with most notebooks is that i could only write on one side of a page with my fountain pen because the ink would bleed through the page. With Atoms to Astronauts notebooks i have finally found the solution. Writing on both sides of a page is no problem anymore also the ink dries quickly on the paper and doesn’t smear. I am very pleased with my buy.
