Waka (若, "young") is the color of new growth — the first greens of spring before they deepen, the yellow-green of unfurling leaves, the blue-green of water catching light through a canopy. This memo pad gathers all of it into a single stack.
Siki (四季, "four seasons") is a paper collection by Takeo that binds together sheets of different colors and textures into a single volume — each page a different encounter. The Waka edition moves through lime greens, sage, teal, moss, and soft aqua, each sheet with its own surface character.
One edge is cut at an angle, revealing the full layered spectrum of papers from every viewing angle — a quiet detail that turns the pad itself into something worth looking at on your desk.
Made in Japan. Each sheet is different — use them as notepaper, gift wrapping, or simply to enjoy the paper itself.
