On October 26, 2026, Atelier Magnus unveiled the Slate75 Moonphase in Copper, a special piece based on its Slate75 keyboard.
It is a one-off piece created for artist Refik Anadol and DATALAND, an AI art museum in Los Angeles.
Rather than a standard new colorway, it is presented as a “1 of 1” piece.

Hand-finished copper whose appearance changes with the light
The Moonphase Copper features a finish that shifts in tone and reflection across its machined surface depending on how the light hits it.
According to Atelier Magnus, the surface is finished entirely by hand, giving this particular piece its own depth and character.
It is a keyboard that invites appreciation of how its materials and machining look.
No pricing or ordering information for general sale has been announced.
The official website also describes it as a special piece made exclusively for Refik Anadol and DATALAND.
A physical keyboard’s place in the world of AI art
Refik Anadol is a media artist whose work uses data and AI.
DATALAND is a museum focused on data visualization and AI-driven creativity, with its artistic direction led by Anadol’s studio. It is located in The Grand LA, a mixed-use complex in Los Angeles.
Atelier Magnus describes its contribution to this project as deliberately physical.
What stands out is the combination of a tactile material and a hand-finished keyboard with an art world shaped by data, light, and computation.
It is a tool for typing, yet it is also given a presence shaped by the place where it is used and the story behind its creation.
It’s an intriguing example of where keyboards and art meet.
Conclusion
Slate75 Moonphase Copper is not a new colorway for an existing model, but a one-off made for a specific person and place.
It doesn’t look like it will be offered for general sale.
Still, it’s beautiful…
Greenkeys also covered Atelier Magnus’s Slate Zero when it was shown in Japan.
This latest project is also worth watching as a characteristically Atelier Magnus approach, considering keyboards through their form and materials.
