Midori MD Notebook Cotton F2 is a new addition to the MD notebook lineup. Designed especially for sketching and drawing with pencil and paint, the paper is made with 20% soft cotton pulp. The result is paper that is strong, and smooth, and that will not deform under friction. Both pencil and paint will spread smoothly. 

The Cotton range counts 200 pages (as a reference, the Classic MD Notebooks counts 176 pages).

Midori MD Notebook Cotton F Sizes

With the end user in mind, the Midori MD team asked themselves, who would use cotton paper to draw. As such, the sizes of MD Notebook Cotton have been optimized for drawing. 
The Midori MD Cotton range features F0 size (H180xW140mm), F2 size (H240xW190mm) and an F3 variant (H273x210mm).
Incidentally, the F stands for “figure” – this French standard is based on the golden ratio for portraits and other pictures.

Midori MD Paper | Misc-store Amsterdam

MD Paper is Midori’s pride when it comes to the art of making paper. Being a stationery manufacturer from the 1950’s, MD Paper can be described as part of their blueprint. Ever since Midori made MD Paper in the 1960’s, they have applied the Japanese ‘Kaizen’ principle, meaning they are continuously looking for ways to improve its quality. The result is paper that will not stain, or bleed and is fantastic to write on, especially with a fountain pen.
Not only the paper itself has been developed carefully, also the method of binding deserves an explanation. The MD Notebooks are bound by means of stitching; a large sheet of papier is folded into a bundle of 16 pages. Then, such bundles are bound with thread. This method enables the notebook to open entirely flat, ensuring ease of writing, without a bumpy middle.
To honor this method of binding, Midori has left the cover uncovered, so its spine exposes the cheesecloth tape, which is used to reinforce the bound paper. The MD notebook comes with a wax paper cover.
