Loading...Initial idea from Jochen from Berlin:
I would like a handmade notebook in the format A6, the material should be produced with a local Kenyan pattern, locally produced in Kenya. I would like a part of a saying from a leso visible on the outside (perhaps even with business relevance). Apart from that I would like the words "Ideen verbinden…"(please include the ellipsis) on the bottom left of the front cover. On the bottom left of the back cover, the English version "Ideas connect …" I'm flexible with the color and open to suggestions.
In case you want to have your own idea realized just follow this link.

Hello Audrey,
thank you so much for your effort! I understand the challenge to find something business related. As it is a challenge and the color is even more relevant to me I suggest we just pick the right color. If then there is a single word which makes sense in relation to business we could display this word. I like the green-orange fabric of one of the books displayed above. In regards to the stitching I can imagine that grey or silver could work with this fabric. So from my side all is fine 🙂

Hello, thanks for your prompt response.i will go and look for a lesso in that colour.
If I don't find those specific colours then I will use the same material as the one you have seen and liked but the catch is that it won't have any wording since it's a different type of print called kitenge.Is that okay with you?
Regards
Audrey
