Bento Jot: Stationery Reimagined

In an increasingly digital world, stationery holds its ground as a protection of personal expression and Creativity.

It’s not just a set of tools; it’s the gateway to creating. We wrote our first words and sketched our first drawing with it. We began to love design and started our creative journey with stationery. 

At some point in our lives, we all fell in love with stationery. Now is the time to experience a new kind of stationery.

This is Bento Jot — a sophisticated, modular stationery set designed with a Scandinavian minimalist aesthetic inspired by the Japanese bento box concept, incorporating 12 bespoke, high-quality stationery items for a refined creative experience.  

The Bento Jot 12-item system is harmoniously designed to blend function with form. From the sleek, solid aluminum pen that glides across the pages of a dot-grid Monograph Journal to the precision of a machined ruler and the subtle click of a Blok Measuring Tape. We exclusively designed each piece in this collection to create an enriching atmosphere to enhance your creative process and boost productivity while maintaining the love you have for the pages you write on.  

The Bento Jot was designed to be a functional work of art. We meticulously crafted it to serve every one of your creative needs and reshape your space to make you want to create incredible art. It is our dedication to supply you with the tools you need for your craft. Every contour, edge, corner and part of the Bento Jot has been molded to be the perfect fit for the creative in you. 

Bento Jot is the interplay of Japanese heritage and precision with the sleekness and minimalism of Scandinavian design. The Bento Jot introduces an innovative organizing system inspired by the compact stacking of a bento box. Built to last a lifetime, the Bento Jot is made of high quality aluminum and tin to ensure longevity. No more hunting for that favorite pen or notepad when everything has a designated place in the box, ensuring that you can quickly locate what you need when you need it. 

The uppermost layer of Bento Jot is ingeniously divided to prioritize your most-used items. One section cradles the solid aluminum pen, a standout piece that balances form with function. At the same time, the adjacent compartment is tailored for the dot-grid Monograph Journal, your canvas for ideas and illustrations that matter.

Crafted from solid anodized aluminum, the pen’s body is resilient and immune to scratches, maintaining its pristine appearance over time. The heart of its functionality lies in the refined German-engineered ink refill that promises a seamless, uninterrupted flow, ensuring each word or doodle glides onto the page with precision. Additionally, the magnetic cap is a marvel in itself — providing a satisfying click upon closure and the convenience of attaching the pen securely to any metallic surface.

The Monograph Journal is the centerpiece of the Bento Jot, a beacon for those who appreciate the tactile feel of pen on paper. Meticulously crafted with premium materials, each leaf of the journal consists of natural white, 120 grams paper providing a sturdy, subtle texture that’s gentle on the eyes and ideal for a spectrum of writing instruments. The dot grid layout is accented with an edge recess for elegance and practicality, serving as a guide for writing and sketching without intruding on the page’s purity.

Beneath the essentials lies the mid layer, a dedicated space for the Bento Jot organizer– the vegan leather carrying case that makes the act of carrying your stationery effortless with its expandable features and adjustable holders. With the Bento Jot travel organizer, you never have to compromise on accessibility or convenience.

At the foundation, the base layer combines an ensemble of creativity-enabling tools. Here, you’ll find the precision-engineered metallic ruler, the soft-textured 3M paper sheets, and other essentials like scissors, tape, paper clips, and a compact eraser. Each product is thoughtfully crafted to inspire and assist without overwhelming your workspace.

The Bento Jot is customizable, which is made possible by the interchangeable lids and trays. You choose between how many layers you want to house all your creative tools, and with our rubber lining, you can layer them in any order you like. Tailor your stationery setup to perfectly fit your creative workflow. Whether you’re an artist who needs space for brushes or a writer who needs quick access to a variety of pens, the modular design empowers you to adapt the compartments to suit your needs.

Quality materials create a space for quality creativity. Your Bento Jot offers a special creative experience with attention to every detail. Our pens glide effortlessly across premium-grade German paper, offering a balance of smooth and tactile writing experience. The pencils are designed with top-tier graphite, allowing for precise and clear lines. The journal is made from recycled vegan leather & high-quality natural white paper, pleasing to the touch, and ideal for sketching, writing, or doodling.  

A well-kept workspace is not merely a physical space but a reflection of a disciplined and focused mind. Bento Jot’s innovative design encourages users to maintain an organized tableau, fostering undistracted and clutter-free creativity.  
The muted yet eye-catching color combinations and the brushed aluminum textures create a calm and modern atmosphere that speaks of sophistication and serenity. With Bento Jot, your workspace becomes an extension of yourself — a space to express your thoughts and ideas freely without any limitations.

In a world where environmental mindfulness is no longer optional, Bento Jot sets a new standard in sustainable stationery design. By dramatically reducing plastic usage — up to 95% less compared to traditional stationery products — Bento Jot stands at the forefront of eco-friendly innovation by using long-lasting metallic parts anywhere there would normally be plastic.

Founded in the design mecca of Copenhagen in 2021, NOOE represents the innovative vision of Neetica Pande, an accomplished industrial designer, and Piyush Suri, an experienced branding and design entrepreneur. Together, they envisioned NOOE as a harmonious blend of emotive design and practicality, pushing boundaries in everyday aesthetics.

This dynamic fusion of style and substance quickly catapulted NOOE to international fame, culminating in the prestigious Red Dot Design Award in 2022.

As a testament to its global appeal, NOOE has shipped products to over 31 countries from strategically placed warehouses in New Jersey (USA), Venlo (Netherlands), and Delhi (India), and further marks its presence in concept stores worldwide.  

You can get your Bento Jot in two colors, Forest Green and Carbon Black, with each adding its own element of emotion inspiring creativity in different ways. 

Understanding that the finest tools stand the test of time, Bento Jot is committed to ensuring that your creative journey never stops. Our online store offers a complete range of refills for all items within the Bento Jot ecosystem. The pens and pencils can be replenished with high-quality refills, ensuring that your tools are always ready to capture your though.
