This autumn, MIYAKE DESIGN STUDIO and Moleskine will launch their ISSEY MIYAKE | MOLESKINE creative partnership. The project began with the two companies’ shared philosophy that honors creativity.

The first release—the innovative new design item ‘NOTE-A-NOTE’—will debut on Wednesday, October 1.

In their pursuit of creativity, the two companies revisited the act of “writing on paper” as an essential source of creation. In an increasingly digital age, paper still plays an essential role in daily life, most notably through the exchange of business cards, which continues to shape human connections.
‘NOTE-A-NOTE’ was inspired by this cultural context: a ground-breaking hybrid between a notebook and a card case, designed to capture first impressions and ideas at the very moment of meeting.
