GMK Underworld takes its inspiration from a popular mobile game’s depiction of the Sumerian underworld goddess, adapting her colour palette to a striking red-on-black keycap set with gold accents and hiragana sublegends.
Underworld’s deskmat depicts a scene from the goddess’ final attack – a chasm floor erupting with pillars of brightly-coloured energy!

GMK Blot takes its name from blót, the Old Norse term for a blood sacrifice – a spectacle in which animals were ritually slaughtered, their blood poured into bowls, spread across stones, and sprayed upon nearby buildings and onlookers. The remains of the slaughtered animals would be cooked and feasted upon, accompanied by toasts of consecrated ale or mead to the glory of the gods. The blót was sacred to the Old Norse people, and was an important pillar of their religious practices; the sacrifices given as a gift to their deities in exchange for victory in battle, bountiful harvests, lasting peace, and many other types of favour.
The deskmats for GMK Blot are in keeping with the theme of this ancient custom. “Altar” depicts the Ægishjálmr – the “Helm of Awe” – a symbol said to grant a sphere of protection, often drawn upon the body or shield with blood to strike fear into the hearts of one’s enemies, as well as a pair of Jellinge-style goats being pierced by swords. “Blood Ritual” on the other hand shows a blót in progress, the keycap-shaped ritual stones soaked crimson with the blood of sacrifices, illustrated by stylish pixel art.

Inspired by pulp horror legends from both film and print, these deskmats pay homage to the fear of things that go bump in the night that we rationalize for our entertainment.
Two deskmats are available for GMK Terror: the “Welcome to Terrorville” deskmat designed by Inputuniverse, and the “Skulls” deskmat designed by Psyoshi!
“This beautiful deskmat designed by Inputuniverse captures my vision of a sequel that never came to one of my favorite books growing up. After having just escaped death, the main characters are told by their “saviors” they are not headed for sanctuary as they hoped. Instead to a monster hotspot known as Terrorville. So I bring you to Terrorville with me, where the monster stars of old all reside. I hope you enjoy this fun exploratory accent to your setup as much as I did dreaming it up.”
– Psyoshi, on the “Welcome to Terrorville” deskmat“A step away from the wild side to bring GMK Terror and your keyboard front and centre. The Skullmat is a more subtle patterned deskmat, sure to delight the senses. So whether you want an adventure or to sink into the feeling of Terror, I got you covered.”

OCE: DailyClackCreated by Reebes and their fiancée, KBM Love Detective is themed after a particular character – a favourite of the couple’s, from one of their favourite shows! The set’s primary colours were, of course, inspired by this mysterious Love Detective’s bright pink hair! Complimentary colours with warmer undertones were chosen to convey the warmth required of L.D.s in their trade, while still aiming to stay true to the source of the set’s inspiration, resulting in a “peachy coral-y soft orange-y colour” being used for the legends on the cream alphas and as the base colour for the set’s various accent keys.

Our wonderful friend and sponsored creator Alexotos has utilized his well-recognized style of seamless overlap and underlay of colours to create a kind of “calamity” texture-wise.
SA Ramses was designed to mimic the deep green of the Nile surrounded by sandy banks. This has since expanded into versions where the colours are inverted, or a single colour across the whole set. Avrocado has designed SA Ramses to have four different colour combinations: opt for the green on the mod keys rather than the main alpha keys, or just a full beige kit to match a unique board colour.
To add talent on talent, the lovely EURApsd has designed matching deskmats that capture the natural curves the Nile has carved out in the landscape over an unimaginable amount of time, with the statues of Bastet and Anubis looming in the distance.
Fever Dream was designed by MountainKBD, whose distinct visual style gives the deskmat its surreal comic book-inspired design, with panels made to be viewed in any order. Fever Dream is available in both colour and mono styles, with both smooth and rough-textured options available for purchase!
GMK Alpine is a beautiful ode to the Swiss Alps, an unforgettable silhouette that those who call Switzerland home know all too well. Bregoli, GMK Alpine’s designer, summarizes their vision of the set beautifully:
Have you ever been in the Alps and wanted to take a piece of it home with you? GMK Alpine is a Keycap set revolving around the beautiful Swiss Alps.
In Switzerland not only do we enjoy hiking, skiing, climbing or touring the mountains but the many different mountain animals enjoy the peaceful life up there and the Farmers watch their livestock while the herd dog plays around in the grass.
The Swiss mountains are a major part of my culture and something I would love to share with you. Even during tragic times, the Swiss alps helped defend Switzerland and gave anyone a hard time invading this beautiful country. They served as not only a shield but also as a bunker to keep the whole population safe.
This is my way of capturing the magnificent alps.

From bringing positive reform post coup d’etat at the very end of the 18th century and being crowned Emperor, to a bloody military campaign that ended in exile, KAT Napoleonic sets out to explore the historic and artistic depictions of the Napoleonic Era.
NoPunIn10Did has done an incredible amount of work to bring KAT Napoleonic to life. Using a serif-based typeface inspired by Transitional and Neoclassical typefaces of the 19th century, as well as a combination of the uniform colours seen from the three empires that waged war against each other, the result is an authentic and classy looking-glass into a time well before ours.
Two deskmats are on offer in two different sizes: one design shows the size of Napoleon’s forces during his invasion of and subsequent retreat from Russian in 1812, and the other as an excerpt from Leo Tolstoy’s War and Peace, wherein the characters discuss Napoleon, Australia, and politics of the early 19th century. As the aristocrats would supposedly switch between French and Russian in a single conversation, Tolstoy does the same.
