Pocket notebooks are a dime a dozen, but there are few that feel good to hold or that capture the soul of a hand-made object. Designer Enon Avital studied the craft of bookmaking in art school, learned how to work with paper, a variety of binding methods, and overall fell in love with paper-based arts. With Dapper Notes, he set out to create something a little more special than your typical notebook, something that is made of unusual materials and inspires you to enjoy beautiful artwork every day.
It took years of tinkering to perfect pocket notebooks that have a two-layer cover with fabric ticking on one side and bookcloth on the other, resulting in a strong material that feels super nice and is unlike any other. Each Dapper Notes notebook is entirely hand-made by Avital complete with onion skin endsheets.
Ticking is a cloth of tightly-woven cotton or linen textile, traditionally used to cover tick mattresses and bed pillows. The tight weave makes it more durable and makes for a fabulous notebook cover.
