After a bit of a lapse between updates here at Field Notes we are glad to be back with some news direct from Seoul, Korea - a design stationery haven as yet untapped by Australia and indeed most of the west.
MMMG Hardcover Drawing BookThe attitude towards stationery and design all over Korea is a bit different to here in Australia, with ubiquitous love of stylish, functional and unique designer stationery. Like fashion in Europe, appreciation for gorgeous stationery is mainstream.

Pansy Daisy Notebook!Any stationery lover could find suitcases worth of cool stuff to bring back home, where it would be totally unique.
The king of Korean stationery, O-Check Design Graphics, is available in Australia but there are seriously cool up and coming brands, like MMMG and Pansy Daisy which are still unavailable to us.

Off to New York City? Please post LOTS! I'll be in NYC for 8 days over xmas and i'd love lots of places to go!
