Panobook | Panoramic Dot Grid Notebook | 11.34" x 6.30" | Studio Neat

Studio Neat's Panobook is a panoramic notebook built for people who think sideways. Founded in 2010 by designers Tom Gerhardt and Dan Provost, Studio Neat operates on a simple philosophy borrowed from Walt Disney: make money to make more things, not the other way around. They've been profitable since day one, refuse venture funding, and have no interest in being acquired — just in solving interesting problems with small-batch products that work. This notebook reflects that ethos: 288 mm x 160 mm of usable landscape real estate, 50 sheets of soft white 100 gsm paper with a 5 mm dot grid and guide markers, bound with black wire-o so it lies completely flat when open. The covers are leatherette polyurethane on rigid black board with rounded corners. Comes with a title sheet in heavier 200 gsm stock and a rigid slipcase for storage. Typeface is Verlag by Hoefler & Co.

Wide enough that you can sketch something horizontally without running out of page halfway through your brilliant idea and having to cram the rest into the margin like an architectural afterthought. The wire binding means it folds all the way back, so you can hold it in one hand while gesturing wildly with the other. Dot grid keeps things vaguely organized without making you feel like you're back in third grade practicing cursive.
