Our Inspiration

Traditionally we have looked to museums and private collections that specialize in antique book bindings or handwritten manuscripts when creating our covers. And while these art forms continue to inspire key pieces of our collection, we now also work with contemporary painters, illustrators and digital artists. We have even experimented with transferring sculpture, photography and furniture design to our book covers!

What makes a Paperblanks design unique? Is it our cover textures, foiling and debossing? Is it our unique closures, iconic red ribbon or book edge printing? Well yes, all of the above, but mostly what makes a Paperblanks journal so special is the true story behind the cover art!

Behind the Design: Kara-ori, Japanese Kimono.

Karaori are regarded as some of the most beautiful theatrical costumes in the world, thanks in part to the Japanese aristocracy’s embrace of the theatre style – as both viewers and performers.
