The Cousin Avec is an A5 size planner that divides the year into two books: January to June in bright lime yellow and July to December in cool ice blue.
The Avec was created for users who found their planner too bulky after a year of pasting photos, tickets, and notes. By splitting the book into two volumes, the Avec stays lightweight and easy to carry, while still offering the same one-page-per-day format as the Cousin.
Inside, you’ll find daily pages, weekly spreads, monthly calendars, and yearly indexes, all printed on thin, durable, and fountain pen friendly Tomoe River paper. The thread-stitch binding ensures each book lays flat for comfortable writing.
Pair the Avec with a Hobonichi A5 cover (sold separately) to protect your planners and add storage.
