Inspiration
Allow me to introduce our studio's first product, named 'Klavier,' inspired by the classical music term for keyboard instruments, especially pianos.
When we came across this still from Prometheus during the design process, our souls were profoundly shaken, so we decided to create a keyboard as elegant as a piano.
Design
Integration of the palm rest with the keyboard body provides a more expansive design space for the main visual area. Bold segmentation in the design imparts a strong modernist style.
A large area is adorned with a black mirror finish, reminiscent of the surface of a piano, thereby recreating its unique ambiance.
While the keycap version depicted is not the final selection, we will offer an unmarked version of keycaps, inspired by the unmarked keys of a piano, aiming to create an ultimate design language.
The bottom of the keyboard draws inspiration from the internal structure of a piano. When flipped over, it resembles the lid of a grand piano.
On the metal mirror plaque on the back, we engraved a Latin motto that has inspired our team for a long time, and we hope to extend this sentiment to all players who supported us from the beginning:
"Per aspera ad astra" - Through hardships to the stars
This serves as a special mark for our brand's inaugural product.
To enhance the user experience for the palm rest, we have customized a dedicated leather pad, as shown in the diagram.
Wing Suspension System
Traditionally, the concept of mechanics in mechanical keyboards revolves around mechanical switches. When conceptualizing this keyboard, we aimed to imbue the keyboard itself with a certain mechanical functionality and aesthetic. Thus, we introduce a new structural design called "WING."
The overall structural design is composed of our improved scissor structure, combined with customized pneumatic cylinder bolts.
The structural design aims to optimize the consistency of the positioning plate's soft rebound, achieving maximum consistency while maintaining the advantages of both GAS and TOP.
The entire structure is joined by a central beam, ensuring that when pressure is applied to the positioning plate, the force is evenly distributed through the scissor structure to the bottom pneumatic cylinder bolts. Simultaneously, the pushback force generated by the pneumatic cylinder bolts also acts uniformly on the entire positioning plate, ensuring consistency in elasticity.
Colorway
In the first round of the GB, we will offer two surface treatment options, namely black PVD and black anodized versions.
