Hobonichi 2025 A5 Cousin Cover [Phoolon: Large Flowers]

We created a techo cover featuring “block printing,” a traditional Indian technique. The cover’s name is “phoolon,” meaning “flowers” in Hindi.

The two fabrics applied to the front side are from “chahat,” a store that sells handcrafted materials from Nepal and India. Both patterns are created by Indian artisans by hand-pressing wooden blocks. The three-dimensional colours and blurring produced by the wooden blocks are unique to block printing and cannot be expressed by screen printing, which has become mainstream today. Please enjoy the individual differences of the misalignments and ink splashes as the character of each piece. You can cherish the warm texture of the handmade work and the endearing and refreshing blue color.

The flower pattern is slightly larger than the A6 Original size cover.
