Hey everyone, oay here.

I'm thrilled to present a new keycap I've designed. (Some of you might have already seen it.)

The origin of the design comes from a romantic and idealistic science fiction movie - "宇宙探索编辑部” ,

which connects the universe with poetry, both are my favorite things, and the original inspiration came from this.

When I was a child, I learned many poems about the stars in textbooks.

Those words I read ten years ago have experienced a long time in my memory, but now they have become more vivid and exuded new value.

People today cannot see the moon of the past, but this moon once shone on the ancients.

I would like to take this opportunity to get a glimpse into the romance and rationality of stargazing in ancient China, and thus designed this keycap.

I hope you like it.

The main color of the keycaps is moonlight white, with bright yellow star as embellishments.

The four colors of blue, light gray, vermilion, and dark gray respectively symbolize

the four symbols of the Blue dragon, White tiger, Linnet and Black tortoise in the star directions.

Based on feedback from the IC Form, I'm evaluating two changes:

1. Moving novelties to the base kit

2. Base mods: Bottom row icon → text

（I'd love to hear any suggestions or words of encouragement in the IC form ：）

The deskmat centers around a traditional Chinese astronomical chart,
with the 28 Lunar Mansions positioned according to their celestial directions.
Peoms cascade down both sides like scattered stars in the night sky - appearing and disappearing subtly,
each line whispering its connection to the constellations.

The keycap pictures above are rendered.

Due to the difference in different monitors, the color may be slightly different from the final product.

I have tried my best to stay close to the color chart when rendering.
