Why you'll love it
Layflat binding
A good notebook should open flat without force, for a comfortable writing experience. Our specialist layflat binding combines thread-sewing with cold glue, to retain flexibility. The results speak for themselves — a book that is as robust as it is elegant.
Minimal design
Our considered edit of timeless classics are designed to feel intuitive and unobtrusive. We want the design to feel almost invisible, whilst giving you the structure and prompts you need to get things done.

I only wish I had discovered Mark + Fold sooner! This notebook is an absolute delight to use. The beautiful paper is of exceptional quality, making writing a smooth and enjoyable experience. Whether using pen or pencil, the pages hold up wonderfully without any bleed-through.
The lay-flat design is another standout feature - it makes every page accessible and ensures ease of use whether you're jotting down quick notes or writing for extended periods.
This notebook feels like a premium product in every way, and it has completely elevated my writing experience. Highly recommend to anyone who values thoughtful design and quality craftsmanship!
