Both are available in A5 and 16 bold, stylish shades. All left- hand pages in the planner feature an agenda for the week, with the opposite page displaying a dot grid for expanding notes, to-do lists and ideas. The weeks are not set by calendar or school years, so the user can use the weekly tool according to their own timescale. The company’s meeting books provide space for meeting dates, attendees and actions, with a professional- looking leatherette softcover. Both products are made with Clairefontaine’s 90gsm brush vellum paper. “The books are ideal for the modern worker, with an organised and professional look,” says marketing manager Clement Rouillard. “They are also great for those looking for stylish stationery with a premium boutique design.” +44 (0)1553 696 600 exaclairlimited.com 
