Writing Tools

The Drehgriffel writing instruments reinterpret a 1920s original design with modern precision. Defined by their hexagonal barrel and distinctive twist mechanism, they balance weight, form and function in the hand. Available as rollerball, ballpoint and mechanical pencil, each piece feels engineered rather than decorative and is a considered companion to the notebook.

Bullet Journals

Developed in collaboration with Ryder Carroll, the Bullet Journal Edition refines the method with thoughtful layout adjustments and premium paper. Alongside it, Jot Books offer a lighter, flexible format ideal for travel, lists and daily notes. Together, they extend the core Leuchtturm philosophy into formats built for specific uses.

Leuchtturm1917 | A Century of Considered Design

Founded in 1917, Leuchtturm1917 has been refining the art of the notebook for over a century. What began as a family-run publishing house in Germany has evolved into one of the most respected names in modern stationery with a reputation built on precision, utility and a deep understanding of how people actually use paper.

Details That Define the Experience

Every detail serves a purpose. Thread-stitched bindings that lie flat. Numbered pages and indexed contents. Ink-proof paper engineered for clarity. An expandable pocket, elastic closure, carefully considered proportions. Nothing decorative for decoration’s sake; only tools designed to be used daily and used well.

Colour as System

The colour palette has become as iconic as the notebooks themselves. From muted neutrals to saturated brights, each shade feels intentional. Whether on a desk, in a studio or carried between meetings, a Leuchtturm notebook holds its own visually.

Writing Tools, Reimagined

Beyond notebooks, the brand continues its design legacy through the Drehgriffel writing instruments - a revival of a 1920s original designed pen but reimagined with modern engineering. Together, the range reflects a simple philosophy: good design supports clear thinking. And when the details are right, the work flows.
