Hi everyone,
We are AEs in Germany. We are pround to announce that our deskmats are now available, our design language is taken from the exquisite Japanese minimalist, modern from the cosmic theme, and finally the childish and innocent that inspired from biip's EPBT Coolkid keycap.
All of these mats are in stock and ready to be shipped. Since we are located in Germany, all EU order will be prepared and shipped in the next day. Other countries will have to expect a longer preparation time.
These following deskmats will be sold through our website :https://aesproject.xyz/ (https://aesproject.xyz/)

I like most of them!
-
Deskmats from Germany count me in.
Have you thought about making a Japanese themed ones? Maybe with Samurai or Koi fishes?
-
Finally something for EU, definitely gonna support.
-
I like them a lot. Least favourite is the leaf.
-
I love the third deskmat but the lines on the right are too close to the planets in some places.

I’d love to get the first two but im not really into the text.
To me, “This is pink/purple” doesn’t really feel like it belongs there
Other than that love ir

Have a look at gmk sumi deskmats, no point for these to be the same

I know but it never hurts to have more Janapese deskmats when considering all GMk sets now have hiragana subtexts for no purpose at all.

Yes! A lot of ideas are being considered in this phase. I will consider your suggestion.

Submitted my opinion on the form!
-
Clean af man
-
first two remind me of the new Porter Robinson album cover.
-
The child in me loves the planets one. Very neat work! Love it :cool:
-
Jajajajaja the first two give me BTS album vibes. The last one is adorable :thumb:
-
These are great
-
Submitted my opinion on the form!
Thank you! I appreciated it.
-
Really like the first two designs!!
They remind me of the art for Porter Robinson's upcoming album Nurture
-
nice designs. but since most people have the keyboard to the left and the mouse to the right, the more prominent element should be on the right. For example, the deskmat with all the heavenly bodies might benefit if the planets and other stuff was reversed to the right hand side. that looks more visually interesting to me versus wavy dotted lines.
-
I assume these are the standard 900mm deskmats? If thats the case, Im in!
-
The first two* deskmats kind of reminded me of some of Porter Robinson's recent album art (https://i.redd.it/rl5rka72y8e41.jpg). Are they possibly inspired by them?
Either way, they look great and I'm definitely interested.
-
Wow. As a german I'm so in! Especially love the one with the planets!
-
I like the one with the leaves :)
-
100X50 cm please (A)
-
I like them but having used deskmats for many years, can I suggest that grey's and darker colours are better because light coloured deskmats will get dirty looking very quickly.

I think the second one is different as it's brighter right? I like that one
-
2nd Version :)
-
Hm I can't understand myself for liking the last one this much. Anywho nicely done work.
-
Both are great.
-
The plant one would really suit GMK Botanical.
I'd be keen on that one.
-
2nd version (where the planets shine more)
Seriously...except the one with the kids drawing (which I am just not a fan of) I'd buy each and every one of those mats.

Yeah that's right, i tried to make the planet not standing out too much on the first one.

Do these in 24in x 48in. The sellers on Alibaba can do mats over 900x400, and the market's really missing a mat larger than the 900x400 that everyone's been running. Everyone just copied the first GB that was in 900x400.
-
Can't wait until these are launched and like I've already said, I have my eyes on the "cool huh?" mat ;)
-
I didn't even read the entire post and was about to write on the IC for a reversed #3. Glad other people feel the same!
-
These are piquing my interest! I'm especially a big fan of the very first two, with the squiggly pattern, the large strong filled out circle, and kana/kanji. I'm definitely interested in the very first navy/white iteration. It has a very nice balance of thickness/fill in terms of hierarchy, that I would strongly urge you to - I would however expect to see a heavier lineweight in the rightmost squiggly object.
I do feel like some of the remaining lack contrast in color - this might very well have been a conscious decision of course. As a follow-up to this point, I would definitely vote for the second version of the galaxy/contour-lines, as the added solid brighter color creates a stronger feel of contrast and object-presence - it feels less two dimensional and flat.
Also; The kids drawing one is cute, but I don't see it ending up on my desk.
-

haha just wait, if the "cool huh" deskmat does not meet the expected demand, I still make one for you ;)

26.05 UPDATE
Hey guys, so it has been a while since we last updated about the deskmat. We just want to let you guys know about the progress and also the changes that we have decided to go with.
*How to buy?
I will not open a GB for the deskmat (We want to save our first GB for our first keyboard) So it gonna be in stock limited quantity. If you guys are interested in our deskmats please fill the IC Form, so we can contact you when the product is available.
*(#1,#2 Design)
- Change the text to 「少ないことの喜び」,which is "The joy of less", since the core design of #1 and #2 is inspired by the Japanese minimalist life style.
- Change the color of the #1 from navy/purple-ish to more subtle royal blue (still to be decided)[attachimg=1][attachimg=2]
- Adjust the font of the text (For some reason the text from render pic is still pretty thin, I have no idea why..but keep in mind the text on real product will be slightly thicker)
[attachimg=3]
(*THE BOARD IN THE RENDER IS AKI-S 65% https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=104703.0)
*(#5 Design) ( Considering remove)
-Does not meet the expected demand.
-
Loving all of these deskpads!!!
-
Love the new Japanese phrase on the mat, makes much more sense comparing to the previous one!
However I'd still prefer the purple version, seems somewhat more aesthetic idk ^-^ Is there any chance you can save me a spot if you sold out before I could get one for myself haha
-
But you're doing the "Planet" deskmats too, aren't you?
-

Yes, Every deskmats are gonna be made except for the hand-drawing one.

Id like the mats with Japanese without the Japanese lol
-
So the hand drawn one won't happen anymore? That one was my favourite.

Dang, I just got the email 15 minutes ago and I was eyeing the leafy one...hopefully there's another round of them. The muted green is exactly what the volcanic green protozoa needed
-
Damn this dropped at like 4am where I am, had no chance! I also saw the link was dropped on the mech group buys discord pretty much at the time of launch.... that’s probably what ate all them up so quickly!

-

Depend on your location, If you are in the EU we will likely ship it on the next day. Everywhere else we will need at least 1 week to work with the courier since most international shipping orders doubled the price due to the current situation.

Hey, 2 of the deskmats arrived yesterday and they are beautiful, i love them! Thank you very much, looking forward to future projects.
-
Hey I just got my deskmats in today and I'm honestly very disappointed. These mats are very thin and the stitching around the trim has a lot of imperfections. The thinness of the mat makes certain sections clump together so that the deskmat can't sit flat. I might sound like an idiot complaining about a deskmat but I have purchased a lot of deskmats for GMK collabs so that is the quality I am used to and these are a quality level much below that imo. Sorry, just wanted to give me 2cents
-
Hi, has anyone else not received their deskmat? Its december now and I havent received anything. I tried requesting a refunding but their website is down and is inactive. Havent received a response from email either.
