The Hobonichi Techo Lineup Preview gives you the opportunity to see the lineup before it is released, checking out in person the actual colors, materials, and weights of the new planners.
This year again, the venue will be the Hobonichi store TOBICHI in Minami Aoyama.
(4­-28-26 Minami-Aoyama, Minato-ku, Tokyo)
Dates: August 20 (Saturday) – 29 (Monday)
During the three-day period from August 20 (Sat) to August 22 (Mon), Techo Team members will be on hand to assist visitors with any questions they may have about the materials, how to use the planners, and so on.
Whether you’d like to see the lineup in person, make an early selection, or just happen to be in Tokyo at that time, please drop by! Everybody is welcome!

The lighter, thinner and easier-to-carry Avec 2-book set, which splits the year into two books of six months each, will be available for the 2017 version too.
Moreover, the “Weekly Calendar,” which was not included until now with the Cousin Avec, will be included in the 2017 version!

Many of you requested this feature, while many others did not want it, so we gave this a lot of thoughts and decided to go with the preference of those of you who want to go on using their planner as much as possible like the regular version.
So please be sure to try it out and let us know what you think.

The 2017 version of the planner features the addition of a number of new pages found mostly in the extra pages section at the end of the planner.

This here is a new year warm-up page included in the Original, Cousin, and Planner book versions.

It’s a space where you jot down and look back on the previous year’s events, write resolutions for the new year, or jot down items from your previous year’s planner for inclusion in the new year.
These pages are yours to freely use any way you want.
The lower corner of the page conveniently features the December 2016 and January 2017 calendars.

Sorry for this open-ended date...

As of now, the formal announcement of the Hobonichi Techo 2017 is slated to start from August 15 (Monday).
... which is to say, the information about some of the planner covers might be announced later in early August...
Please check out the Hobonichi Techo website

The Hobonichi Techo lineup and stationery selection are renewed each year around the month of August.
Past that date, previous year items basically become unavailable for purchase.
Please keep this in mind if you have a favorite cover, stationery or the like in mind.

... and so, anticipation for the release of the Hobonichi Techo 2017 builds up...
Let’s all have fun together in the festival atmosphere of the summer!

Please stay tuned!
