Communal Garden | A Collaborative Notebook, Vol. One

As you go through life there are often moments when an outside influence enters and helps shape you. This intervention will either encourage you to go a different direction, or propel you further down the path you are currently on. Rooted in this sentiment, we decided to approach this notebook differently by intertwining blank pages with work from some of our closest friends and family: thus making it a collaborative notebook.

We love the idea that the notebook is not complete until you fill in the blanks. Welcome to the community.

Seed Paper Dust-Jacket

For plants to grow, ideas to flourish, and visions to manifest - seeds need to be planted. We wanted to give you the tools to make it happen, so we wrapped the book in a seed paper dust-jacket that you can plant. Giving you a physical representation of your personal growth.

SEED MIX:
PEPPERMINT, LAVENDER, BASIL
CHIVE, AND CHAMOMILE

Collaborative Pages

The pre-printed, collaborative, pages that are spread throughout at random are a representation of those moments in life that shape us. Our hope is that you become inspired when viewing these pieces, and that new ideas spark, or that you find a new direction and get closer to completing works in progress.

Note: The images shown are partial to preserve the essence of Communal Garden. Our aim is for your initial interaction with the collaborative pages to be a unique experience. Therefore, we refrain from revealing them in their entirety.
