The MIDORI A5 Color Dot Grid White Notebook is the neutral member of the Color Notebook series, pairing a warm white paper cover with 56 pages of white MD Paper. A 5 mm dot grid adds quiet structure for writing and layouts, while the slim A5 construction keeps the notebook suitable for daily work, study and personal projects.

Choose it for meeting notes, coursework, project records, journal spreads or visual planning when a clean background matters. The white pages make text and color easy to distinguish, and the familiar A5 dimensions offer a useful balance between writing area and portability.

A restrained white cover with foil detail

The soft white cover is marked by a small gold foil dot motif and understated title. Rounded corners reduce wear when the notebook is carried loose inside a bag, while the saddle stitch construction keeps the profile light. The result is a simple object that feels equally appropriate on a studio table, classroom desk or office workspace.

Structure without heavy ruling

The 5 mm dot grid supports straight handwriting, measured diagrams, trackers and page divisions without creating the visual weight of lined or fully squared paper. It also helps position stickers, tickets and photographs. Because the dots remain discreet, the same page can move easily from written notes to sketching, lettering or mixed-media arrangements.

A flexible MD Paper notebook

White MD Paper gives this version a bright, adaptable writing surface for a wide range of pens and pencils. It suits users who want the Color Notebook format without a tinted page. Very wet inks and heavily saturated markers should still be tested first, especially when both sides of each sheet will be used. Inktraveler finds it particularly practical for compact project-based note systems.

Package contents

The package contains one genuine MIDORI A5 Color Dot Grid White Notebook, supplied individually by Inktraveler. Pens, pencils, stickers, photographs and decorative accessories shown in lifestyle images are not included. (Product photographs are for guidance; perceived color may vary slightly depending on lighting, screen settings and the individual product).

A focused notebook for one subject at a time

With 56 pages, the white edition is easy to dedicate to one course, trip, client or creative theme. It can be completed without the commitment of a thick journal, then stored as a compact record. Used alongside other colors, its neutral cover also provides a clear visual category within a larger organized set.

MIDORI and paper-based design

MIDORI began in Japan in 1950 as a producer of writing paper and envelopes. Paper and thoughtful design have remained central to the brand as its range has expanded. The Color Notebook collection reflects that background through an uncomplicated object in which color, layout and portability support personal expression rather than competing with it.
