OURS Studio | 2027 Research Project Journal - The Reunion

Pre-order ending in
Description
The Reunion celebrates the idea of coming together and the memories created along the way. The cover artwork by HANK and KOOPA draws from everyday moments of making and sharing homemade fruit preserves.
Inside, a flexible eight-section layout leaves room for both planning and personal documentation. Monthly pages give a broader view of the year; weekly pages hold plans, thoughts, memories and the small details.
For 2027, OURS Studio introduces MORI KAZE, a soft, airy paper with moderate thickness, made to reproduce printed colors with fine detail.
The back cover has two card slots for instant photos, business-card sizes and collectible photo cards, plus a larger slot for postcards.

Shipping and preorder
The journals leave OURS Studio in mid-October and reach us soon after. We expect to ship in late October, in the order the pre-orders came in, to addresses in the United States. If you add anything else to your order, we hold it and send everything together once your journal is here, so it all arrives in one parcel.

Before you order
When will it ship?
Late October 2026, once the journals arrive from OURS Studio. October 12 is OURS Studio's estimated dispatch date from Taiwan; orders go out in the order they are received.
Can I add other items to my order?
Yes. Your whole order ships together once the journals arrive, so in-stock items are held until then.
Do you ship outside the US?
Not for this preorder. USA only.
What are the bonus sticker sheets?
Two Simple Paper sticker sheets made for this journal, included with every preorder. The designs are revealed closer to shipping.
When is the last day to preorder?
Preorders close Monday, September 21, 2026 at midnight Eastern. The countdown on this page runs to that moment. We may open a second round afterward, depending on news from OURS Studio.
What is the Answer Book?
A small companion booklet from OURS Studio that comes in every 2027 set. Open it to any page when you need a nudge. It ships with the journal, the matte PVC cover, and the postcards and minicards.
Is this the same journal as last year?
Same A5 size, 176 pages, monthly and weekly pages, and the two-slot customizable cover and PVC protective sleeve. New for 2027: MORI KAZE paper, the Answer Book in the set, and The Reunion cover art by HANK and KOOPA.
Can I use fountain pens?
Many work. In OURS Studio's testing, the new MORIKAZE paper handled the same fountain pen and ink noticeably better than last year's paper. Very dark or wet inks can still show through, so try yours in the test boxes at the back of the journal first.
What does the paper feel like?
Soft, with a comfortable thickness. OURS Studio describes it as between smooth and toothy, leaning slightly toward a gentle writing feel.
What are the boxes at the back of the journal for?
They are test pages. Try a new pen, stamp or ink there first to see how it behaves before you use it in the rest of the journal.
MORIKAZE paper, tested
Will my pens and stamps work?
OURS Studio tested the new paper with the same stamps and pens as last year. Most passed, and fountain pen ink shows through noticeably less than on the 2026 paper.

Before you write
Every ink, nib and hand is a little different.
So the journal saves test boxes at the back. Try a new pen or stamp there first, and it will tell you more than any list can.
