Paper that behaves
100 GSM, acid-free and bleed-resistant. It handles colour pencils, gel pens and light marker work without ruining the page behind. The binding lies flat so you can work across the spread.
Our story
Good paper.
Good paper.
Honest lines.
A quieter hour.
Arts Book, owned by Rahil Mohmmad Khan, began with a simple frustration: most colouring books used paper so thin that a marker would bleed straight through the next illustration.
From Agra, we set out to create something better — a book that felt like a proper art object, with original line work, thick pages and a size that was comfortable to actually colour in. So we made one. Then eight. Then a whole library.

Why we exist
Colouring is not a
Colouring is not a
childish hobby.
Ask anyone who colours regularly and they will tell you the same thing: it is one of the few activities that asks just enough of your attention to quiet everything else. No notifications. No decisions. Just one line, then the next.
Under the ownership of Rahil Mohmmad Khan, Arts Book was built for that feeling. Our books are designed for adults who need a screen-free reset, for kids discovering the joy of making something with their hands, and for anyone looking for a thoughtful gift that is not another candle.
“We are not trying to sell you a wellness trend. We are trying to sell you a really good book, made with care, that happens to make your evening better.”
Every illustration is drawn in-house. Every book is printed in small batches. Every order is packed by a small team that genuinely cares whether your pages arrive flat and dry.

What we stand for
Three things we refuse
Three things we refuse
to compromise on.
Line work with intention
Our illustrations are drawn by people, not generated by a prompt. Lines are clean and confident, with detail that is satisfying but never so dense that colouring feels like homework.
Small-batch everything
We print in modest runs, check copies by hand and pack every order ourselves. It is slower and more expensive, but it means we can stand behind every book that leaves the studio.
How a book gets made
From sketch to
From sketch to
your table.
Every title goes through the same careful process. Nothing is rushed out to meet a trend.
1. Draw
Our artists sketch each theme by hand, then refine the line work digitally so it prints cleanly at A4 size.
2. Test
Every collection is coloured in by real testers using pencils, gel pens and markers before it is approved.
3. Print
We print on 100 GSM paper with single-sided pages, then check the binding and page order by hand.
4. Pack
Your book is wrapped with a colour swatch card and a note, then dispatched within one working day.
A small request
Slow down for one page.
You do not need a perfect setup or a free afternoon. One page, a few colours and ten quiet minutes is enough. That is the whole idea behind Arts Book.
