DOTS 87
by NONO Club
Post edited by Click Clack



The highlight of this set's design is inspired by Dieter Rams. Since his products often feature a 'dot' motif, we have creatively incorporated this element. Additionally, as one of GMK's favorite keycap themes, this 80% set is named 'Dots'.

Layout

This is a keyboard designed to be interchangeable for users who prefer 'left-hand' layouts.

Therefore, it needs to be 'versatile' first and 'practical' second, which is why we chose the 80% layout.
Since it can be switched between left and right, and the 80% layout has a larger function key
area, the key positions in this area can be adjusted more flexibly.

For example, it can be transformed into a numpad area, and the removable space bar offers
users who prefer a smaller space bar an additional option, while also accommodating those
who like a larger one.

Structure

Since versatility is the main feature, we aim for a more convenient swapping process, which is why we continue to consider a quick-release structure.

The top case is designed without any handheld stress points, so we have adopted a magnetic quick-release method.

For the gasket structure design, we have implemented a 'spring tube' structure for support, which enhances both the support and elasticity based on the limited rebound of the original gasket beans.

Shape


As the keyboard market becomes increasingly competitive, entry-level products have reached a point where 'NO competition = NO survival.'

To ensure our product has a place in this competitive market, we have repeatedly adjusted its shape to achieve a level of 'less is more.'

While keeping costs down, we strive to adhere to the design philosophy of 'Less, but better,' creating a product that is simple yet not simplistic.
