Asgard Omoshiroi 3D Notepad

Art That Reveals Itself

This Omoshiroi block memo pad is a functional notepad that gradually reveals a stunning 3D architectural sculpture as you tear away each sheet. What starts as an ordinary stack of paper transforms into a detailed miniature building — making every note you write part of an unfolding artwork.

How It Works

Use it as a regular notepad — jot down reminders, phone numbers, or messages. As sheets are removed, the hidden 3D structure within the pad slowly emerges, creating a beautiful desk sculpture that's uniquely yours. The reveal process takes weeks or months of daily use, making each day a small discovery.

A Gift That Keeps Giving

Unlike ordinary desk accessories, an Omoshiroi block memo pad delivers a sustained sense of wonder. It's the perfect gift for architecture lovers, stationery enthusiasts, and anyone who appreciates functional art. Display the finished sculpture on your desk long after the last note has been written.

What's in the box

This is a DIY kit, not a finished model. It arrives as pre-cut pieces with a printed manual, and you build it yourself.

Before you start

• Pick up craft glue and AA/AAA batteries locally — they can't be shipped internationally.
• Recommended for ages 14+ — parts are small and detailed.
• Sort the pieces by number before gluing anything.

FAQ

Can I customise or paint it? Yes. The wood takes acrylic paint well, and many builders add extra LED strips or small figures once the main build is done.

How long does it take? Plan on a few evenings — roughly 6–12 hours depending on how fussy you are with the details. Many builders split it across a weekend.

How big is it when finished? It's designed to sit on a standard bookshelf between your books — roughly the footprint of a hardback, so measure your gap first.

Is it beginner friendly? Yes, if you can follow an illustrated manual. It's a satisfying step up from the smallest kits: more pieces, more detail, but no special skills or tools needed.

Does it come with lights? No built-in lighting in this kit. If you want it lit, a short battery LED strip fits neatly behind the finished build.

Do I need glue, batteries or tools? Glue and batteries aren't included because they can't be shipped by air. You'll want craft glue (or wood glue) and no batteries for this model. A small craft knife and tweezers help with the finer pieces.
