Hobonichi - Cover Cousin A5 | Yuichi Inoue Jo (Going up)

 The Hobonichi Techo Cousin A5 Jo (Going up) cover honors the work of renowned calligrapher Yuichi Inoue, celebrated for his freedom from convention and his powerful, emotive brushwork. Featuring one of his signature ichijisho (“single-character works”), the kanji “Jo” (to rise) embodies vitality, momentum, and transcendence.
The design is silkscreen printed onto plain, unbleached cotton, allowing the depth of each brushstroke—and even the finest ink splatters—to be vividly preserved. The result captures both the strength and the sensitivity of Inoue’s artistry.
On the outer pocket, the character’s reading and meaning, along with the artist’s name, appear in a minimalist modern typeface, balancing traditional beauty with contemporary design. Inside, a dignified ink-black lining meets sky-blue accents, while a bright blue bookmark ribbon adds a note of freshness and light.
This cover radiates calm determination, making it a perfect companion for anyone seeking inspiration and creative focus in everyday life.

As an optional extra, you can add the Hobonichi - Cover on Cover Cousin A5 (Sold separately), , a transparent plastic cover that protects your Colors cover from daily wear and lets you personalize it with postcards, photos, or paper decorations.
