About the Line

The Dark Matter series is built with all-black, extra-thick, high-quality, 100% recycled paper and printed with soy inks, leaving a light footprint. Black paper is best used with gel pens (look for ones that are specially formulated to write on dark mediums – like our Supernova pens), metallic markers, oil pastels, chalk and more. If you've never tried a black paper notebook, now's the time! Your problem sets, class notes, sketches and journal will have never looked cooler.

Be inspired to ask the right questions, find creative solutions to complex problems, and beauty in the little things.

The textured covers of these notebooks have the feel of old textbooks, and with advanced lay-flat pages, they want to fall open, like a well-loved library book. Go ahead and see for yourself – these are the notebooks your most brilliant ideas, sketches, and illustrations have been waiting for.
