Need suggestions/ideas.....on color actually.
« on: Sun, 06 October 2013, 10:50:20 »
Hey guys, I just got my hands on a Sanctuary key set, see pic below, and I am now stuck as to what color the case should be. I put the keys on my Filco temporarily to see if it would work, sadly it doesn't 'pop', to me anyway.

I'm thinking red, or a lighter shade of gray, do you guys have any suggestions? Don't worry if the color you have in mind would suit this key set only, I'll be getting a Rosewill, or used Filco or Ducky, and it'd be dedicated to this key set only. I lack imagination, and suck big time when it comes to color co-ordination, so any useful tip/idea/suggestion would be greatly appreciated. :)

I think you only need to paint the Filco logo in red if possible, or maeby they sell the logos in red?

Take a good photo, load it into your favourite photo editing app, and try experimenting.
"Because keyboards are accessories to PC makers, they focus on minimizing the manufacturing costs. But that’s incorrect. It’s in HHKB’s slogan, but when America’s cowboys were in the middle of a trip and their horse died, they would leave the horse there. But even if they were in the middle of a desert, they would take their saddle with them. The horse was a consumable good, but the saddle was an interface that their bodies had gotten used to. In the same vein, PCs are consumable goods, while keyboards are important interfaces." - Eiiti Wada
