[Hobonichi Techo Kaigi 2027]
Going compact with my work techo

Hi everyone! This is Asako from the Hobonichi Techo team.

Today I'll be holding a Techo Kaigi for my work techo!

After using many different types of Hobonichi Techos over the years (I think I used most items in the lineup), I’ve come to the conclusion that for work, I need a layout where I can see a bird’s-eye view of my weekly To-Do list, much like the weekly pages in the Weeks or the weekly diary in the Cousin.

▲ The To-Do list pages from the work techos I’ve used over the past few years.

I wanted to challenge myself with a different techo, plus I wanted to go a little bit more compact, so for 2027, I’ve decided to try another option that lets me see an entire week at a glance: the Weekly Calendar.

I used an A5 size HON in 2026, so this feels way more compact in comparison.

I experimented with a few different ways to make everything fit, and this is the format I finally arrived at.

I’m using it sideways!

While a part of me wants to use it in its standard vertical orientation, turning it sideways gives me longer lines that fit my tasks perfectly, so I think I’ll stick with this method for now.

At the same time, I’m aiming to learn a bunch of abbreviations to compact the To-Do lists themselves.

▲ I plan to write my notes in the Graph Notebook. It might be fun to color-code them by meeting!

▲ Here is what it looks like when you pair the Weekly Calendar with a Graph Notebook. So compact!

But actually, I have another situation going on that makes this whole “downsizing” plan feel a bit naive...

And that is...

▲ The techos I picked out based purely on my own desires. Even if I don’t end up buying all of them, I can always save their cute designs in my techo.

There are just too many techos I want, so things are far from compact right now.

If things keep going at this rate, I’ll end up using five Original size techos, four Cousin size techos, and six Weeks books. Will I be able to figure out a specific use for each of them before 2027 arrives?

With just 100 days left until 2027 arrives, I plan to keep on enjoying my Techo Kaigi for a little while longer.

Well then, I hope you look forward to tomorrow’s update!
