[GB] Ellipse Keyboard Kit - Extras

Estimated Shipping Q3 2023

Curviest 60% on the market

From the designer:

Having been in the hobby for a while (since late 2015), I’ve seen plenty of 60% designs, trends and features. This made me hesitant to do a standard layout design as I didn’t know what to add to the table without the design looking… like a nice rectangle.

Ellipse is my take on the always popular and in-demand 60% keyboard layout. It also marks a new chapter in my journey in keyboard design. I thought about making Ellipse a bit more… different while still keeping it sleek, modern and versatile.
