GMK Indigo is inspired by Japanese denim culture, particularly that of raw selvedge jeans that fade as you wear them, revealing the various shades present in this beautiful color. The novelties and desk pad draw from sashiko, a type of Japanese embroidery which has a long history and association with indigo textiles. With its distinct stitching on a contrast background, sashiko adds both function and beauty to a garment. Let GMK Indigo do the same for your keyboard.
