In our opinion one of the best things about a brand new school year was getting brand new school supplies and some fresh new notebooks. As adults that same delight hasn’t totally worn off, we still get a hint of excitement when selecting new notebooks and writing materials. Accordingly, the Approach Notebook System has us very excited.
Approach is a set of functional notebooks and planners that incorporate innovative add-ons that are designed to optimize the experience of the user. Designed in Seoul, South Korea the system features a lite notebook, index stickers, sticky notes, a professional notebook, highlight stickers, and a bookmark. The whole project works to provide users with an unparalleled experience but also allows them to customize their products’ look and purpose to suit their needs.
Approach has created this system with thinkers in mind, specifically for those who spend a lot of time thinking and strategizing. By stripping back all superfluous elements and focusing only on the basic, most critical needs, the Notebook System is a work of streamlined, minimalist bliss, allowing users to concentrate on whatever thoughts and idea sparks they may have.
The lite notebook part of the system was created with frequent digital device users in mind. In order to link their digital work with the physical space in paper, the notebook opens completely flat for doodling and note-taking across its entire width. Its pages can easily be ripped out for sharing. While the professional notebook is for those who predominately use paper as their main note-taking and thinking space. Its hardcover is extremely durable, while its inside pages are clear and unfussy. When combined with the series of stickers, sticky notes, and bookmarks, users can figuratively and literally put their stamp on them.
