[IC] Sui - Numpad Left Macro Keyboard
« on: Mon, 06 September 2021, 17:05:56 »
Hi all,

Thank you for even clicking on this thread for the first keyboard kit from saevus. This is a passion project I have been working on for a while. Please find the information below.


Sui Generis, meaning unique in Latin. Shortened to Sui, which means self in Latin, was inspired by the fluidity of self identity. Although ever changing, having an identity is an ever important goal and quest simultaneously. Flowing side profile, highly productive layout, interesting color options and unique weights (big boi and top left/right accent weights) add to this theme. This layout was designed with productivity, streamlined aesthetics, and ease of outfitting in mind.

First Renders







Current Status: Awaiting pricing quotes from manufacturers. Ordering prototypes this week or next.

Renders (and Pantone Palette) - I will work on getting some better renders done.

Please make it so the renders are visible without clicking links. The board itself looks pretty nice. Side profile is unique. Also do you plan on just having one prototype? I would imagine it may take a second one to sort out all the small details, and that estimated gb date is pretty soon. Good luck!

Thank you so much for the kind reply. I will clean this up, make the IC more user friendly and am already working on better renders. First time actually posting on GH, but have been lurking on the forums for like 2 years.

I greatly appreciate the patience and understanding.

Lovely board. Does just enough to make it unique without being overbearing.
