DK1-60% Keyboard Update：

Our keyboard kit has been updated from Plate-mounted stabilizers to PCB-mounted stabilizers.

Hi everyone!

We are glad to partner with GDK Lab to take the beautiful DK1-60% to our international community.

The Design

Keep it Slim

DK1-60% is the 2nd design from GDK Lab after their TKL, but it has a softer and more cohesive look on the smaller 60% layout. On the front, it continues the narrow bezel design and uses an internal locking screw structure, allowing for even slimmer top and bottom bezels. A new nameplate has been added: stainless steel accents are embedded into the front teeth area, crafted with a dual-finish PVD process that blends mirror and matte textures, enhanced with beveled edges — a subtle yet elegant highlight.

Play with the Cutouts

The side profile adopts a three-layered stacked design, shaped with precision wire-cutting, while color blocking between the side and bottom case adds depth and a strong sense of structure. On the back, generous chamfering enhances the overall layering effect, and the recessed "DEFINED" logo appears subtly within the weight cutout, creating a refined visual focal point.

Make Fun with AnodizationMarblano - marble anodization

While many trials were conducted on keyboard cases after anodization, GDK1-60% plays some magic before anodization. It achieves a visual effect that reflects light and shadow dynamically across the aluminum surface. As shown in real-life photos, this effect is exceptionally eye-catching and brings a uniquely artistic touch to the overall design.

Key Highlights

1. Marblano Effect: First use in a keyboard — creates a unique light-play effect on metal.

2. Three Layouts - WK, WKL, HHKB

3. Brass/Copper Bottom case

4. 15.5mm Front Height: Lowest in custom gasket builds — comfort without a wrist rest.

5. Front: Slim-bezel design, further refined by the internal fastening solution.

6. Nameplate: Dual-finish stainless steel with beveled cut — blends minimalism with fine detailing.

7. Side Profile: Three-tiered wire-cut layers revealing subtle color accents.
