Here’s something a bit different, a notebook that incorporates recycled sails and sailing rope:
“With the look, feel, and design of a traditional black notebook, the Cape Horn notebook reimagines used sails from the world’s most epic sailing expeditions as the ultimate storytelling tool.
The notebooks, which contain fragments of a sails that have traveled all the way to the southernmost tip of South America, aim to inject the dynamism of life at sea into everyday life.
Designed and created by Chilean designer Antonia Undurraga, herself an avid sailor, the notebooks merge two diverse industries – sailing and paper goods – into one product.”
Buy the Cape Horn notebook at Amazon.
The Cape Horn Notebook website has some interesting photos of the manufacturing process, much of which seems to be done by hand.
