Landscape Notebooks

[Geo7700]

Im' looking for a notebook that would be wider that taller with the binding on the side. I prefer dot grid, Japanese grid and blanks.

 

I've look at Rhodia and Moleskine with their watercolor paper and their reporter notebooks.

 

I there any notebook you would recommend?

You may need to create your own. Have you thought about using something like Levenger's Circa?

[Geo7700]

I didn't know about Levenger's Circa. They are beautiful (a little expensive, but not too much).

 

​I will definitely get some of these.

Take a Rhodia Dot grid and rotate 90 degrees to your left.

Thanks for the tip Cyber6, but I can't get passed having the logo in the wring orientation. Even worst, the flap would be on the top which is bad because I wouldn't have the long 2 page spread I'm looking for.

How about this new Rhodia Landscape (web)notebook?

 

Forgot to mention - believe these can be special ordered thru the Goulets if you can't find them at your local Rhodia resource.

You could also take a small sketchbook/pad and rotate it 90 degrees. I do, every once in a while when the landscape notebook bug bites me. Pages will be blank. You can get all sorts of paper in these, so test for fp-friendliness. Good luck!

Believe Staples has the rings similar to Levenger but less expensive. Do some searching maybe this forum for older discussions, pros cons, how to for these ring systems.

 

A long sketchbook might be ok but have to be careful of the paper. Maybe designed for watercolors or ? And suck up or feather your ink. Think there is a forum for drawing with ink and a peek there might offer you some ideas of papers and books.

The Rhodia notebook also comes in a top-bound version, which would rotate to the two-page format you are looking for.

Thanks for the suggestions. I think I will go with a Moleskine Watercolor

I would have preferred to have a lighter paper, but I think this will have to do.

The large size Moleskine Watercolour Album (5 x 8.25 inches) is my favourite sketchbook for carrying around with a portable watercolour set. You can write in it, too, of course, but bear in mind that this is watercolour paper, which has to be very thick (200g) to take heavy washes without crinkling. There are 36 sheets of paper in the album (= 72 pages). The paper is textured.

 

If you mainly want a notebook for writing in, the Rhodia Landscape Webnotebook would probably be better.

for blank pages in landscape format, I would recommend the Global Arts Hand-book Sketchbook
