So what's the story behind Mask Off?
After a break from designing keyboards since the Vanguard65 (https://www.keebfront.com/product/vanguard65), I found myself drawn back by a wave of inspiration: from the sharp edges of brutalism, to the neon glow of cyberpunk, and the clean lines of futuristic designs.
Most importantly, I felt the hobby needed shaking up again.
While at a local meetup, I was hearing the general consensus that the state of keyboards were starting to blend together only strengthened that feeling.
So here I am on a mission to showcase another custom keeb that provides a personalized experience to add to the keyboard collection.
Mask Off (MO), is a keyboard kit that serves both minimalism aesthetics to fit any modern day environment.
Why the name Mask Off?
The internals of a keyboard are hidden inside its aluminum shell. My goal was to design a keeb that reveals its one true self, to represent the activity occurring beneath.
This interest check is intended for you to help out with the following:
