Floral Lattice (Blue) is a collaboration with designer and illustrator Eiji Mitooka, who has worked on designs for many railroad cars and station buildings. The varying colors and patterns of these squares and their nature-inspired motifs are reminiscent of kumiko woodworking. This cover features the textile design drawings created for the seats of JR Kyushi express train "Kawasemi Yamasemi." This version contains the Hobonichi Techo Original Book 2023 - April Start, which starts in April 2023, just in time for the beginning of the Japanese school year.

Eiji Mitooka was born in Okayama Prefecture in 1947 and founded Don Design Associates in 1972. He has designed buildings, railway vehicles, graphics, and products, and released several books; he is known for his work on the JR Kyushu train station building and trains. He has received the Brunel Award, Mainichi Design Award, and the Kikuchi Kan Prize for his work.
