1. Midori Codex

If you need a journal, or a day book, or a place to Bullet Journal, it doesn't come much better than this. The Midori Codex is listed as a day-per-page, but the pages are unmarked and you therefore have a lot more flexibility than that. The paper is, of course, perfect. Despite holding 368 pages, the book lies flat. The corners are perforated so you can open the book to the latest page easily.

2. Cross Peerless 125

The best pen to pair with the Midori Codex is the Cross Peerless 125. You'll need to hunt this thing down yourself, because it doesn't look like Cross make them any more. US pens tend not to be the leaders of the pack, but this specific model has a Sailor nib and, paired with Sailor bottle ink, it delivers the best, smoothest writing experience I have ever had.

3. Grind Coffee

We did Ozone coffee previously and now we're doing Grind. The House Blend is an excellent all-round coffee, the Ethiopian Edition is a light roast that tastes amazing. In addition, Grind make a host of biodegradable pods, canned ice-coffees, and even Espresso Martinis, along with great tins and accessories etc.

4. Noteplan

If you struggle with to do apps and just want something simple that does the job well, check out Noteplan. It works off a very simple daily note in which you can type tasks, reminders etc and then timeblock them in concert with your existing calendar. Noteplan is essentially a digital bullet journal and it works across all devices.

Here's a super-simple getting started video by Edouard Metzger, the creator of the app:

5. Cinta Vidal

I've featured Cinta Vidal's work here before. I find it mesmerising. You can see her portfolio HERE.
