About
Hi, first time designing a keyset, the main idea there was to create something kinda minimalist but very singular. Thereby I drew ‘curves based’ icons, I wanted to make something fresh with round shapes.
Still, in this spirit of simplicity, I used pastel Pantone® Colors in order to add a sweet color touch and have a smooth contrast with the rest of the keyset.
I also chose a simple and rounded font called ‘moon’ for the legends, but I had to draw some characters in particular. No copyright issue here since I bought it.
I’m still hesitating between DSA and XDA profile, you may help there guys! It will be DSA, according to the results of the poll.
It should be PBT Dye-Sub.
Huge thanks to Oblotzky for his help and the renders he made. He made everything possible!
Also thanks to David from Candykeys who helped me a lot to make the set become reality.

You can find me on Discord biip/#4019 or on reddit u/biiperino for more information.
Thanks for your feedback

    The AliExpress Ripoff “Drama”

Kinda fun fact since it has now been removed… My set was copied a few days after the initial Reddit and GH threads by a Chinese manufacturer.
They basically ripped the jpeg of my Planck render. You can see it was in the very early stage of the project since it has one “mistake” I made: Capslock icon instead of Shift.
