In the vibrant world of keebs, innovation is simply the name of the game. MVKB, a designer known for pushing the boundaries, continues to redefine what is possible in the realm of keycap sets. With the upcoming release of the MV Expo, MVKB has held us and other hobbyists captive with its visually striking appearance.
MVKB’s previous works have left a lasting mark on the keyboard community, challenging other designers to push past the status quo and raising the bar on what it means to express creativity through keycaps. From his bold colour choices to extremely well-designed novelties, there is a rightfully earned reputation for MVKB.
MV Expo is not an exception to MVKB’s track record of excellence. Featuring a unique font and abstract art on all the modifiers, this set demands attention with its off the book aesthetics. Despite GMK’s typically strict rules in regards to font choices and colours, MVKB’s collaboration with GMK has managed to shift the tides and push what is possible for GMK sets. They are simply a keycap set we can’t stop looking at.
Teaming up with Salvun, a renowned Artisan maker, the two have added an artisan cap to tie the whole set together. It perfectly complements MV Expo. Inspired by modern mid-century design sensibilities, the artisan features a captivating blend of a warm orange and subtle textures that draws in the eye. From its mesmerising swirls to its delicate and intricate patterns, it is a piece of work that simply cannot go unrecognised.
With MV Expo, MVKB and Salvun have once again demonstrated their ability to push the boundaries of what is possible within the keyboard world. From unique designs to innovative collaborations, the keycap set isn’t just an amazing set aesthetically, but it sets a high bar for future releases with GMK. And with a price that is surprisingly reasonable for a GMK set, MV Expo is sure to be a hit among enthusiasts looking to add a touch of perfectionism to their setups.
