The 2027 Midori Pocket Diary Slim Dog brings a considered, expressively illustrated companion to everyday planning, presenting artwork by Japanese illustrator Natsumi Teraoka throughout its pages. First introduced in 1984, Midori's Pocket Diary series has long paired practical planning with distinctive seasonal design, and this edition continues that tradition under the theme "A Year of Living with a Dog."
The diary follows a monthly block layout, spanning January 2027 through March 2028, offering a clear, uncluttered overview of appointments, events and plans. Rather than repeating a single decorative motif, each month presents a new illustration, placing dogs of varying personalities within everyday and imaginative settings, rendered in vivid colour and expressive, rainbow tinted outlines. Hand drawn date numbers and grid lines lend the pages a warmth and character distinct from a conventional printed diary.
Produced on Midori's acid free MD Paper, the diary offers a smooth, consistent writing surface compatible with fountain pens and other writing instruments. The slim, narrow silhouette is enclosed in a flexible PVC cover fitted with a built in pen holder, allowing it to be carried comfortably in a bag or kept close at hand in a compact workspace.
