Square design measures W80 × D80 × H8.5 mm (70 sheets).

Hers Experimental Design Laboratory is a design company in Japan similar to IDEO in the US. Such companies are famous for rethinking and rebuilding common objects in innovative ways. The head designer and president Chiaki Murata envisioned Metaphys as a new stationery concept. Murata-san and Metaphys have extensive design experience and have been involved in projects such as Microsoft Xbox console design, the Hono electric candle and Uzu cyclone vacuum cleaner (both Red Dot Design Award winners). Metaphys continues that creative tradition with its clean and thoughtful stationery line.

The Metaphys Blanc Fabric Cover Memo Pad is a worthy creation of such a fine design company. It challenges many of the famous brands popular today. The binding is made of stain resistant canvas fabric wrapped over cardboard, giving the pad a satisfying texture. But the most attractive part of the pad is its faint, dotted grid lined paper. It’s a dream playground for the creative mind. Sheets of off-white paper are glue-bound and can be easily torn off, and have rounded corners to reduce wear and tear. Different cover colors and sizes optimized for different portable uses are available.

This review is from Metaphys Blanc Fabric Cover Memo Pad - 3.1" X 3.1" - Black
Very nice, small and compact with the cover having a cloth like texture. My only complaint is that once you keep using it, the cover tends to stay up. It would have been perfect if the memo pad had a black elastic band to close it with. My solution now is using a medium sized binder clip to hold it closed.

Pros- Small, compact and strong cover with great paper quality
Cons- No black elastic band and price

This review is from Metaphys Blanc Fabric Cover Memo Pad - 2.6" X 4.1" - Orange
I love these little notebooks. They are pretty flexible and the cover material is really neat. My only complaint is that the perforated pages start to fall out with heavy use. I've never had them fall completely out, but just start to tear a bit. I also love them because they are smaller than many other pocket notebooks. It fits perfectly in the pocket of my apron!

These notebooks by Metaphys are fabulotastic. They hold together very well, and wear in a nice-looking manner. The grid lined paper is nicely colored, takes ink very well and the grid lines are not distracting. I only wish Jetpens would get ahold of Metaphys other-sized memo pads, there are some seriously cool ones!

Nice little notebook. Linen cover feels great in the hand. Flips easily, pages come out readily, but not when you don't want that. Paper high quality.

This review is from Metaphys Blanc Fabric Cover Memo Pad - 2.6" X 4.1" - Black Cover
The paper is off-white smooth and I really like the discreet quad ruling. The glue binding is of good quality; the paper tears out easily without mess.

However, this paper is not suited for use with fountain pens. The ink will bleed through. You can get away with using a fountain pen if you plan on only using one side of the paper. Only one side is quad-ruled; the other side is blank. The paper is best suited for pencil, ballpoint or gel pens. At this price-point for a 70-small-sheet memo pad, better overall quality and versatility is expected.
