Moleskine is a brand well-versed in the creation of journals for writers, but the company is recently expanding into the market of adult coloring books with its latest product dubbed The Wandering City. The book, designed by Carlo Stanga, showcases grown-up creativity exercises encouraging adults to color in famous city landscapes. The book features 50 different cityscapes with detailed illustrations and art supplies to add color to the black and white images.
Traditionally coloring books have been geared towards children, but many brands are coming out with more mature illustration sets designed exclusively for more mature consumers that enjoy doodling and creativity. The Wandering City coloring book features detailed illustrations of cities from a variety of perspectives. The book can be decorated using pencil crayons, pens, markers and even paint.
