ALPHA 75
[/b][/font]
ABOUT
Hello everyone, this is Forest IsLand Studio. We’re thrilled to introduce a groundbreaking next-generation keyboard concept, featuring an entirely original exterior design, a proprietary internal structure, and a cotton-free design that eliminates interference from sound-dampening foam. This innovation allows you to experience a purer, unaltered acoustic profile—letting the true essence of every keystroke shine through.
Customizable Aesthetics
The ALPHA 75 features a modular design with replaceable components:
Top plate.
Left/right adjustable feet.
Front/rear bezels.
Baseplate.
Essentially, the ALPHA 75 is a customizable canvas—completely transform its appearance to match your personal style or workspace needs.
Of course, we won’t leave all the work to you. We offer multiple pre-designed styles predominantly inspired by futuristic, mecha, and sci-fi themes, with a nod to deconstructionism. Every official design features a stylized top cover and adjustable feet, ensuring cohesive aesthetics across all variants.
Why It Matters
Skip the blank canvas—our designs provide a foundation for your creativity.
Form Meets Function
Unlike any other keyboard, the ALPHA 75’s transparent or semi-transparent top plate reveals its meticulously engineered internal components as part of the aesthetic. This dual-purpose design elevates both hue precision and material finish to unprecedented levels.
Why It Stands Out
Mechanical engineering meets artistry—every gear, screw, and stabilizer is now a deliberate element of visual storytelling.
Structural Innovation
ALPHA 75 redefines the rigid architecture of traditional mechanical keyboards by centering on an aluminum alloy chassis as the core load-bearing unit, with all other components secured via precision screws. Unlike conventional designs, it employs a customized bracket system to connect the internal assembly to the central frame—a configuration named the Center Mount, which combines the stability of Top-mounted designs with the elastic advantages of Gasket mounts. By swapping different brackets, users can seamlessly switch between Rigid Center (offering crisp mechanical feedback) and Elastic Center (delivering a cushioned keystroke feel), enabling versatile adjustments tailored to personal preferences.
The typing effect demonstrations of the Alpha75's currently supported Rigid and Elastic structures can be viewed in this video
Ergonomics
Despite its bold, angular design, the ALPHA75 achieves an ultra-low front height (EKH) of 14.5mm—lower than the natural curvature of the human palm—paired with adjustable-angle feet to keep your wrists relaxed during extended use. Remarkably, this design eliminates the need for an external wrist rest.
