Themes

6 themes.

A theme is the color scheme of the whole planner, and picking one is the only choice the ready-made edition asks you to make. Each is a complete five-color system: the paper, the ink, a softer ink for secondary text, the color of the rules, and one accent, which is the color you see on the cover and the tabs. Choosing a theme isn't choosing a cover. It changes every page in the file.

Espresso Linen

Warm linen paper, soft charcoal ink, a deep espresso spine. The one that looks like a bound notebook.

All six, side by side.

The same planner, six themes. Whichever edition you choose, you pick the theme yourself: on the ready-made editions each theme is its own listing, and on a made-to-order planner you pick it on the order form.

Espresso Linen

Warm linen paper with soft charcoal ink and a deep espresso accent.

Stone Gray

Cool neutral grays. The most understated, and the most at home in a work day.

Dusty Blue

Pale blue-gray paper with slate ink and a dusty steel-blue accent.

Sage Paper

Soft green-tinted paper with deep sage ink and a forest accent.

Rose Clay

Warm rose paper with earthy ink and a terracotta clay accent.

Lavender Mist

Cool lavender-tinted paper with plum-gray ink and a muted violet accent.

Any of the six themes can also be built to order, with the pages you choose or your name on the cover.

Why five colors

You'll open this planner every day for a year, and nothing in it should shout at you. Five colors are enough to keep the page working without clutter: one for what you read first, one for what you read second, one to rule the page, and one accent to mark where you are.

The tinted paper matters more than it sounds. A page that's not pure white is easier to look at for an hour, and ink, pencil, and highlighter all look more natural on it than they would on pure white.

The same five colors are also used in the Elements sticker collection, so anything you add to a page was drawn from that page's own theme.

Rose Clay, week page All five colors have a purpose on the page.

Choose your ink

What to write with.

You probably already have a favorite, and nothing here needs to change that. But if you want a pen color that coordinates with the theme, these are the three I'd reach for. The first two separate from the printed page by being darker than it. The third does it by being more saturated, which is why it can stay bright without the page looking busy. Whether you're feeling monochromatic, contrary, or a little bold, there's one here for you.
