Hobonichi Techo A5 Cover | Yumi Kitagishi: White Cat Village

Covers and planners are sold separately.

The fourth collaboration edition between Hobonichi and the acclaimed Japanese illustrator Yumi Kitagishi, who has also gained recognition as a picture book author in recent years. The Cousin-sized cover features a town inhabited by white cats. The original illustration, painted with acrylic gouache, has been printed on polyester fabric, faithfully reproducing the colors and texture of the original.

Under a large tree and hill, a village with colorful houses stretches out in rows. Animals bustle about – some working, some playing – filling the scene with life and energy. It is the density of details filling every corner that makes Kitagishi's works so captivating – each glance reveals something new.

Interior and Details

• Cozy Interior: The inner side of the cover resembles fresh, light green wallpaper – like entering a cozy room full of stories.
• Right Pocket: Adorned with a white cat playing by a dollhouse.
• Back Cover: The village animals have gathered on a grassy hill to enjoy an elegant afternoon tea.
• Hidden Detail: Peering into the pocket reveals a delightful secret – a view into the basement of a small treehouse.
• Ribbon Bookmark: A simple ribbon.
