Hello! I'mfrom the team in charge of techo book production. Did you get a chance to check out the video we released yesterday (August 31) showing how our techos are bound?

Truth be told, and I visited the bookbinding factory earlier this spring!



As we toured the facility and learned about each stage of production, one phrase kept coming up again and again: “This step is done exclusively for the hobonichi techo.”

...In other words, it takes an extraordinary amount of care and effort!

Seeing how their master craftsmanship skillfully brings such a complex book specification to life filled me with renewed gratitude. It made me sit up a little straighter and gave me a fresh surge of motivation to give it my absolute all for launch day!
