- Submit new aluminum artisan for rendering.
- Marketing all day.
- Review IC feedback and finalize kitting.
2020-11-04Nearly three months later. Apologies everyone!
All updates promised for August are in: new novelties, new spacebar kit, changes to base kit.
All vendors and group buy date have been announced.
2020-08-03The August update will be delayed by a few weeks. In it, you can expect:
- a reworked Novelty kit, as well as render updates
- updates to Spacebar kit: offering 1u and 1.25u spacebar, offering split alpha-colored bars.
- updates to Base kit: physical ISO support, "Break" instead of "Pause".
Still waiting on more survey feedback for 40s support and NorDe-UK. I'd love to offer both, but pricing needs to make sense. I don't want to ask vendors to buy out kits that fail to meet MOQ.
In the meantime, I've also secured vendors for US, SEA, UK and EU. I'll announce them soon. GB will likely run early 2021, but I don't have an exact date yet.
2020-07-10- Reworking Novelties kit.
- Changing Base and Spacebars kits to better support ISO and 40s.
2020-07-03- Changing Base and Spacebars kits to better support ISO and 40s.
- Exploring options for Novelties kit.
Considering R5 sculpted row. Not for this set, sorry folks.
Common Questions
Will you offer a deskmat?I’ve heard you all on this -
we will offer a deskmat. Maybe several! I also personally want a “mini”-mat (500x250mm) to fit my personal keyboard tray, so you can expect that too. More news on the deskmat soon.
Color matching is tough, and you’re new at this. Can we trust you?I have reached out to several people about color matching, and plan to employ the community’s state-of-the-art techniques to match color.
Rest assured: I’ll use the
largest magnifying glass and candle I can find. /s
What about a 40s kit?I am not personally a 40s user, but this kit is on my radar. If you are interested and require 40s support, please let me know in the IC Survey.
What about expanded ISO coverage?I’m considering a few tweaks to the base kit to improve support, like R3 \| and R4 >< (thanks Konstantin). Depending on interest I am also open to adding UK-ISO into base.
A Scandinavian-inspired set without a NorDe kit?I would
love to support NorDe users, but it’ll be challenging. Consider two of the biggest sets to date: GMK 9009 sold 1500 base kits and 55 NorDe kits, while GMK MoDo Light sold 3000 base kits and 100 NorDe kits. At a 3% attachment rate and a standard 250 MOQ, I would sell 7.5 kits.
That said, if you’re interested in NorDe, chime in on the IC Survey and I will definitely consider it.
Love the base kit, but...chair novelties? (And other comments about Corbusier / Mies and Saarinen’s architectural work.)I hear you! I’m not the biggest fan of novelties myself. If you’d like to express yourself outside of interior decor, I promise you’ll love the work coming from the artisans collaborating on this set. Hopefully you’re also interested in the base kit as is.
