Hobonichi Techo Weeks - Yumi Kitagishi: White Cat Wallpaper

This is the Hobonichi Techo’s fourth collaboration with Yumi Kitagishi, an illustrator who has also been making a name for herself as a picture book author in recent years.

The Weeks cover features an original wallpaper-inspired pattern featuring illustrations of a white cat, two elegantly dressed swans, a black cat maid, and a grand house. The charming and graceful design evokes the wallpaper inside a dollhouse, a recurring motif in Kitagishi’s work.

The year 2027, the delicate line of small flowers and leaves along the spine, and the ribbon and lily-of-the-valley accent are all foil-pressed in matte gold for a touch of understated glamour.

The days you spend with this Weeks by your side will feel like time spent in your favorite room. Wherever you are, you can be yourself, wrapped in a quiet, comfortable sense of ease.
