Our studio

Quiet paper goods, made to be used.

Johnstonesons is the consumer stationery studio of W. JOHNSTONE & SONS LIMITED, based in Dumfries, Scotland. We design original notebooks, planners, index cards and desk tools for people who think on paper.

We started with a simple belief: a blank desk and a good sheet of paper are still the fastest way to plan a project, sketch an idea or hold a thought. So we make durable, honestly-specced paper goods — and we tell you exactly what you're buying, down to the gsm.

Original by design

Every product is drawn and specced in-house. No licensed characters, school logos or copied brands.

Honest materials

Uncoated paper, solid brass, glazed ceramic and birch ply — chosen to last and to be refilled.

Made to reduce waste

Flat-packed shipping, refillable systems and acid-free storage so a notebook lasts beyond one project.
