Description
Grid paper makes everything look tidier, and the Nakabayashi Think Notebook RPA501DBN proves it. This black A5 graph-style notebook is made in Japan by Nakabayashi and is built for people who think on paper: students, engineers, designers, planners and list-makers.
Why a squared (grid) notebook?
A squared layout is one of the most versatile page styles you can use. The grid works as a guide for handwriting, keeps columns and tables straight, and makes it easy to draw graphs, charts, diagrams and simple floor plans. It's a favourite for maths, science and engineering students, for bullet journaling and to-do lists, and for anyone who likes their notes to look organised.
A5 size: who it suits
At 210mm x 148mm, this is a standard A5 notebook. A5 is half the size of A4, which makes it the most popular size for carrying around. It slips easily into a bag, works well on a small desk or a lap, and is great for daily notes, journaling, bullet planning and study notes on the go.
Paper and binding
The notebook has 80 pages of 64gsm paper. The 64gsm paper keeps the notebook light and slim even with 80 pages, which is ideal if you carry it every day. The pages are stitched-bound, a sturdy binding that helps the notebook hold together through daily use in a bag.
