Title: [IC]MW Barista | Real pictures of collab products and vendors announcement
Post by: hongoo on Sun, 06 March 2022, 05:36:00
[attachimg=1]

Hello everyone. This is Het from OneKey Studio.
Welcome to the IC for our new set – Barista.

OneKey is a studio that all members are designers. Projects we put out are from collective ideas. We hope our designs can bring you a unique experience.
One key for you.



Inspiration
My first job was at Starbucks. One year after, I entered the specialty coffee industry and worked as a barista for a long time. It's a job worth doing.
Although I left that career new, my passion remains unchanged. Since this is my first set, I’ve chosen “barista” as the theme.

It’d be much appreciated if you could take a few minutes to fill out the IC Form.

About R41u – the “Coffee mark”:
More
[attachimg=2]
As a barista, you need to learn and try new things constantly. Some of us developed a habit of carrying notebooks and making coffee notes. After writing down all information about the coffee, flip the cup and leave a mark on that note.  It's like a passport of coffee.

About cupping
More
Coffee cupping as known as cup tasting is how coffee is tasted by producers and buyers around the world to check the quality of a batch of coffee. Baristas usually use the same brewing method and cups for different coffees in cupping. Coffees are scored for aspects such as cleanness, sweetness, acidity, mouthfeel, and aftertaste.

You got a lot going on in your 40’s kit. You have a lot of normal base kit sized mods (r3? 1.5 tab, 1.75 caps lock) which yes they come in 40’s, but those 40’s are designed around using the base kit and not using a 40’s kit. You also have a 1.5u enter but you’re missing the r2 1.75u backspace to go along with it.

40s kit needs quite a few changes:

- remove r1 Pipe
- add r2 1u Delete
- add r2 1.75u Backspace
- change to Backspace instead of Bkspace
- remove r3 1.5u Tab
- change r3 1.25u Control to Code
- remove both caps lock keys
- add 1u r3 enter
- add 1u r3 accent enter
- remove 1.75u Control
- add 1 more r4 1u Alt
- change 1 1u Fn to Meta
- make all spacebars concave where manu allows
- consider making all bars alpha color by default

set looks great  although i would be more interested if the whole set was the color of alphas or the whole set was the color of mods. in other words i like both colors but i dont like that mods and alphas are different colors

Post by: kioskhill45 on Mon, 07 March 2022, 23:45:28
There's something odd in the mods. I think the text is generally too big? Also lowercase p in things like Caps looks really off.

You also have a 1.5u enter but you’re missing the r2 1.75u backspace to go along with it.
40’s cases came in a large variety. This 40s kitting now is based on the information provided by manufacturers and collective opinions from some 40’s users. We will contact the manufacturer about the r2 1.75u backspace. Thank you so much for your advice. We will try to make it better.

Looks great, I think it will pair beautifully with a Gent once they run R2.

Please keep the different mod and alpha colors, contrast is great. No idea why people want more boring uniform two tone designs.

Few minor things though:
The base kit already has the spacebar in the accent color. However, the spacebars kit has the spacebar in the same color as the alphas. While personally I would be covered by the Accents kit, I imagine some people who need some of the specialty keys from the spacebar kit may be a bit disappointed in not having the accent keys.

Not sure if it's a render issue, but the lowercase p in Super and Pg Up and the lowercase g in Pg Down and Up seem to be almost superscripted in a way? The font size seems to be smaller, and the position seems to be shifted up.

Similarly, Pause appears to be going off the cap slightly.

Any chance of seeing a color comparison to GMK Cafe?
There are things in common in terms of theme, so the color choices are limited. However, we noticed that probability since the beginning of this project. We have compared the color of the real product of GMK cafe with our color samples, the difference is big enough. Thank you for your feedback. It is very appreciated.

- change 1 1u Fn to Meta
- make all spacebars concave where manu allows
- consider making all bars alpha color by default

-We will remove the r1 pipe.
-We will add r2 1u delete.
-We will add r2 1.75u backspace.
-For BKspace, “backspace” is too long for a 1.5u, we will try other forms.
-For r3 1.5u Tab, 1.25u control to code, caps lock, and 1.75u control. There are opinions saying that they want these keys. We will look into it and try to come up with a solution that fits most needs.
-We will add 1u r3 enter/accent enter, and one more r4 1u alt.
-For the last three things, we need to talk to the manufacture and see if these requirements can be satisfied.
Thank you very much for your advices! We are still learning about the 40’s kit. It's really helpful! New 40’s kit will be made next update.

This set looks really good, rare to see a dark alphas with light mods, so :thumb: but I also agree that the text size looks too big compared to GMK text mods. With dyesub you should absolutely be able to use a smaller font size. It should fix the fitting issues with some legends (e.g. Delete, Pg Up, Pg Dn, Lower, 1u Super)

I agree that the lowercase ‘p’ doesn’t look right, also in the Super keys.

The letter spacing for the Ctrl key also looks a bit wider than other legends, but that could just be me.

Overall, really nice looking set, but would be nicer if the text mods could be revised a little!

Consider adding a 1u french press novelty and icon mods. As for a few other concerns already raised by other members, please make note of the font for text mods and the inconsistency with the Pg up and Pg Dn.

It is evident that the set is nothing like gmk cafe, since the alphas are darker than the mods and I do agree that your colour choice is limited. Having said that, providing a simple colour comparison shouldn’t be difficult. Also if possible can you please share the pics of your colour samples, unless you were referring to a pantone color book. Very interested in the set all things considered, GLWIC!  :thumb:

Thank you for your support! We will try to add the french press and see if that works. As for the color comparison, It’s difficult to post because screens are different in terms of color settings. It’s not so good to put it in an IC. All we can do now is provide the Pantone numbers. Sorry for that. Although, we still appreciate your defense and support very much. Adjustments of the text are now in process. Stay tuned for future updates.

Looks great! I'll go give more detailed feedback in the IC, but I'll say here that the Novelty kit really needs to have an accent-colored R1.

I either like to have the "full" accent set of escape, enter, spacebar, or no accents at all. With the current kitting, that means I wouldn't purchase or use the novelties since there's no way I could have both novelties and accents. It would probably also help to have an alpha colored spacebar in the base kit as well, but my preference would be accents+novelties so I could live without that extra spacebar if you add in accent R1 novelty options.

I think the text mods here are fantastic. This is coming from someone who has to resist the urge to ask for icon mods on every IC set I'm interested in. Current alpha color isn't unacceptable, but I would agree that they may look better in a color that isn't so dark.

For novelties, it would be great if there was a latte art novelty in R4, so that standard 65/75 layouts with macros on the right side could use latte art from top to bottom.

I'm on the fence about picking up Cupping Milk. I probably will not with only 3 keys on r4. If there were 2 copies of each image on R4, macro columns with 5 rows would be able to use the same image top to bottom. Without that these might look nice to replace cursor control keys on a TKL, but would be unusable for me on macros.

Anyway, despite saying all that I'm in love with this set. Will be keeping an eye out for future updates.

Oo, the smaller font size is looking really good! :cool:

Have you considered moving the white arrow keys to the base kits? The alpha coloured arrow keys don’t really look right on 40-60% boards IMO. I know Commute had two sets of arrow keys in base and the pricing was still good. Especially for 40s, kinda rough to have to buy novelties just for white arrows.

We have talked to MW, unfortunately, there is no 6u space bar for now.
We are trying to find a UK vendor, but have not found one yet.

Absolutely love this set and I probably buy one 40s kit.

Wanna see the next updates about 40s kitting and I personally use on R2 1U key as "`~". But adding this key only for me will be not obviously, so it's may be better to add on each row about 1-2 blank\novelty keys that will fulfill for everyone they uniqe layouts without required to buy the novelties separate (I will not ever will use the 2.25 Enter tho...)

Please include white arrow keys in Base and 40s! There are many sets that have two arrow key colors in base including GMK Sumi and GMK Cafe which are both very similar to this set. Should be included instead of buying an additional kit for mod color arrow keys. I think GMK Sumi is the best example of why you should.

Honestly I like the "latte" accent color better than GMK Cafe.
Personally I prefer arrow cluster matching the modifier color ("Milk" color) in the base kit, or the "Latte" accent. Perhaps consider moving the accent "Latte" color spacebar to the accent kit, and just use "Milk" color for the base arrow. It will be sad to see the base kit cost higher than average and make the overall cost of base + novelties less attractive.

I really like those colors and prefer them against GMK Cafe - I had GMK set and when it arrived, it looked practically black and white.

What would be turnaround of this set?
GB in August, then shipping when?
I hope not like GMK timing...

Thank you for your support! Glad you like it.
We have thought about various personal needs for 1us. You can find the 1us in different heights in the cupping kit. Cupping or cup testing is the process of testing and finding good coffee beans or making a brewing plan for a particular kind of bean. The intention of the cupping kit is to offer more room for personalization.

Sorry, we don't have a sure answer for this one yet. The pandemic is causing so many uncertainties. But MW is usually pretty fast on production. I personally think that wouldn't be a long wait.

We are very happy to work with OneKey studio to design the table mat of this product :thumb: :thumb:

We want to make a design that can reflect the barista theme, and integrate our previous excellent design, so that the two can be combined with each other. After a long discussion with OneKey studio, we finally got this design. I hope you like it  ;D

I have Cafe and would love to have this set as well!

I don't really understand the purpose of the cupping sets, but love the rest. Nice job.

I've seen a lot of ICs with MW, but are there actually any sets out in the wild that they have done?

Thank you for your support! The cupping set is to offer a wider range of options when using a special arrangement. For example, a sub-number pad with personalized functions.  MW has been affected by the pandemic, things are good now.

I love it and will buy it.
Would it be possible to do r5 instead of r4?

GMK cafe was too dark for me, alphas were practically black in real life, I hope these will be more like dark brown.
Mods look nice too.
Unfortunately, our manufacturer does not offer the r5 currently. However, we can talk with them and see what we can do about it. We are also trying to make a dark brown color, Just like the dripped coffee.  I will post the pictures in Discord as soon as the final color samples are out. Thank you for your support!  :thumb:

Do you have final color samples?
