circular one: 3x3 macropad with rotary encoders

We’re circular, a design house centered around maintaining functionality while preserving aesthetics. I’m excited to announce the circular one, a macropad consisting of a 3x3 keyboard with 3 clicky rotary encoders. The macropad comes with a custom set of keycaps and knobs (pictured in the renders) that we feel best match the design of the board, but any standard size keycap will fit. The board is rendered with low-profile switches, but comes with screws to fit standard sizes as well.

Pricing is not set yet, but we expect it to be in the 40-60 dollar range for a kit without switches.
A comprehensive list of features is as follows:
- 3x3 grid of mechanical switches
- 3x rotary encoder with button
- 4x USB Type-C port, one per side to allow for any orientation on desk
- Rubber anti-slip adhesive gasket included with kit
- SLA manufactured keycaps and rotary encoder (optional)
- Assembly hardware for both low-profile and standard switches
- Fully assembled circuit board excluding switches of your choice
- PCB plate for switch mounting
- QMK compatibility and customizability






I’m excited to hear what you think of the circular one! Based on feedback, we will likely revise our design and start taking orders in the coming weeks. Thanks!
