2025 Hobonichi Weeks: Yumi Kitagishi - Beautiful Wallpaper

Hobonichi

This Hobonichi Weeks book uses illustrations by illustrator Yumi Kitagishi, who’s artwork has made waves all over the world.

The world in Kitagishi’s acrylic gouache paintings evoke lovely, warm feelings of gazing at an enchanting picture book.

The theme of this Weeks book is Beautiful Wallpaper. We rearranged this artwork from some dollhouse wallpaper that Kitagishi designed. How amazing would it be to spend time in a room covered in this wallpaper? Being able to envision something like that is what makes this romantic and gentle-looking cover such a joy to use.

The design is lined with things like fancy gloves, puppies on cakes, birds making a heart shape, beautiful pink and yellow roses, and more. These fairytale motifs are lined up along vertical stripes. The book cover and spine are foil-pressed in gold with the year 2025, which shines in the light. This techo includes a brand card with a cat design. The cat peeking out looks cute, and you can tuck it into your Weeks as a bookmark and enjoy seeing it every time you open your book.

Please Read Before You Buy

  • The Hobonichi Techo's Tomoe River paper is designed to prevent bleed-through, but some fountain pens and water-based ink pens are not compatible with this paper. When switching to a new pen, we recommend testing the pen somewhere in the book, such as the back memo pages, to see if the ink bleeds through or takes an especially long time to dry.
  • The corners of the cover contain light traces of press marks, shines, and lumps. This is an unavoidable part of the manufacturing process.
  • The dye in the cover may stain other objects if it rubs against or sticks to them, especially if the cover is wet from water or sweat from your hands. Please store with care.
  • The numbers of the year are stamped onto the cover in metallic or other colored leaf, so strong rubbing or everyday use may cause the numbers to peel off.
  • Please avoid storing your product in hot, humid places or placing it atop other objects for long periods of time as this may result in lower quality and color stains.
