Hi Everyone, this is the first ever project from Tea House. We would call it the classic inspired, no-nonsense F13 88% TKL - Ayleen.
A little bit of back story: there is not really a theme when it comes to Ayleen.
The name was picked simply because designer and I feel this is just the right one! What we really want to achieve is a simple, classy, and semi-affordable TKL, since this is my favorite layout.
Oh did I mention, the sales format will be in stock? More on that Later!

Plate Render (Updated)
Since lots of you guys have asked about the plate, and what Split Plate means, we have since uploaded a complete plate overview here!
As you can tell, the main alpha area and function key area will have two individual plates, hence the "Split Plate"
