ONE YEAR IN TWO BOOKS WITH ONE DAY PER PAGE

The Avec splits the year into two books of six months each. Book 1 (January–June) is a bright lime yellow and Book 2 (July–December) is a cool ice blue. Because it’s split into two books, it’s lightweight which makes it easy to carry around, and it also won’t get bulky even if you paste many things into your techo.

ONE PAGE PER DAY - Each day has its own page with ample blank space to help you use the techo any way you like. The 3.7mm graph paper provides optimal writing comfort. The line colors are subtle enough so users can either customize it to their own layout or ignore it completely. This book includes inspirational quotes on each daily page in Japanese. The book uses thin and light yet durable Tomoe River S paper which provides a high page count with a compact design.

LAY-FLAT BINDING - The books feature the same thread-stitch binding as a dictionary, allowing them to lay flat for comfortable writing. They stay open without the need to hold them down, and the design ensures durability, making it suitable for repeated opening and closing throughout the year.
