A notebook for
the world outside.

Northline is a small nature journal with field notes about looking closely and making time for the outdoors. It is interested in familiar places as much as distant ones.

What this journal is about

The articles offer simple ways to observe a place: follow a shadow, revisit a path or take a pause by the water. They are general reflections, not destination-specific route guides.

Our illustrations

The landscapes on these pages are original digital compositions. They are imagined places, created to explore colour, distance and atmosphere.

A small observation is a good starting point. You can take a question from the journal into a familiar walk and see what it helps you notice.
