Inspiration:
I hoped to capture the peacefulness that one feels when you gaze upon the beauty of nature.

Frankly, this style is quite common and often used as a wallpaper (Firewatch x /r/battlestations), however I wanted to do my own take, where the composition has the sky specifically covering the majority of canvas. I feel this would suit a keyboard desk setup more. Many other designs in this style tend to have a fair bit too much going on in the middle for my personal preference, thus I really wanted to strip it back and evoke that serenity. As such I’ve avoided adding further elements to the sky, to avoid distracting the keyboard being the main feature of the set-up. There's a beauty in simplicity.

I’ve been recently exploring Nordic themed keycap concepts (Mischief & Northern) and this came about whilst around playing with deskmat concepts.

And KAT Great Wave as well!

Also let me know if you vibe with some of the other concept colourway renders I've posted as a potential future keycap design project (obviously not the 9009)

Absolutely adore the Borealis colourway, hope it makes it to GB and that you have a UK proxy for it!

[NovaRMK]

I'm really digging the firewatch theme 

[Havattack]

I don't really get the appeal. There are thousands of deskmats  available online with very similar designs. But if people want it, give it to them I guess. GLIC

I think these look really clean. Keeping an eye out for sure

[hzsh]

These are so beautiful and scenic, great job on the design and the colors are really great choices. I especially like the Zen and Dusk colorways. Overall, nice and simple designs that are very nice. GLWIC!

[Neely_12]

I really like that the keyboard doesn’t obstruct the design. Overall very clean, and the colors are really nice. Will be looking out.

[Arcoril]

Love these. I'd definitely be in for an Evergreen and a Serenity.

[Mr-FLiX]

Liking these alot, especially Serenity and Zen! Will be following progress.
