tanakadaisuke is a collection brand led by Daisuke Tanaka, a costume designer and embroidery artist. Using beads, bijoux, and lace worked entirely by hand, his embroidered pieces carry a classical elegance while balancing femininity and sophistication — a duality that defines his singular creative world.

Starlight is a print of an embroidery work that depicts the moon and stars using countless beads, sequins, and bijoux, with touches of silver foil pressing. The moon, which gives off no light of its own, seems to radiate a glow through the shapes and subtle gradations of each individually sewn bead. Surrounded by scattered stardust, a deep and boundless galaxy spreads across the cover of this Weeks.

Hold it in your hands, and you’ll feel as though a tiny, glittering night sky has opened up before you. Each time you open your techo, it feels like it quietly fills your days with a little light.

The Hobonichi Techo Weeks comes with a clear, adhesive corner pocket you can stick anywhere you like.

The pages are made of thin and light yet durable Tomoe River paper that holds ink well, providing a smooth writing experience.

In addition to the monthly calendars and weekly pages, there are also plenty of grid-lined memo pages.

The back of the book contains bonus pages. Both the Japanese and English editions feature standard favorites like My 100 and the 365 Days Check-Off Sheet, as well as new additions like Phrases to Break That Writer’s Block and the Hobonichi’s Neighborhood: Kanda/Jinbo-cho Map, among others.

If you’d like to customize the look of your Weeks or add space to store accessories, you can pair it with a Weeks cover.

We’ve compiled a list of warnings, potential issues, and tips to keep in mind for this particular product. Additionally, the color of the product may be slightly different in actuality than compared to how it appeared on a computer or smartphone screen.

Press marks or shines may appear on the corners: You may notice press marks, slight whitening, or a glossy finish on the corners of the front and back covers. These are unavoidable results of the binding process.

About the paper used (techo): The Tomoe River paper designed for planners is known for its thinness and smooth writing surface.

We recommend testing your pens on an inconspicuous area first, or using a pencil board or blotting paper for best results.
