Several weeks ago, I decided I wanted one of the Word. Memorandum 2015 notebooks ($11). I ordered it at the same time I ordered the Polygons and Indigo Word. Notebooks. Then I went full-tilt on ring-bound planners so it feels extraneous to keep this beauty to myself.
The Memorandum us beautiful with a rich brown cardstock cover, stamped in gold foil. Inside is fabulously, classic design elements for tracking your days (week on two pages) as well as spaces for indexing and personal information as well as a list of holidays.
The Memoradum is just 2.35″ x 5.25″ so it will slide easily into the smallest pocket. A fancy leather cover is available for purchase from Word. Notebooks ($40).
Designer Jon Contino is responsible for the stunning typography and design and it is awesome. He has a great eye for classic design and it shows.
