The “Mode Designs” keyboard brand is still unheard of in Japan.
This is a great brand that offers high-end keyboards with an innovative mounting style called the “block mounting system” that provides a great keyboard feel.

Mode Designs Announces Special Project for June 2024
Mode Designs sometimes releases “limited editions” or “special editions” in limited quantities, models that incorporate new ideas and designs that would probably not be suitable for mass production.
Normally, the frequency is about one project every few months, but this time, perhaps due to the fact that a large-scale meetup event is coming up in July, a whopping three special projects were announced in one month.
As for the price, it is also special, but the “limited edition of xx units worldwide” is a price that you can understandably afford.

Even Japanese keyboard fans have probably heard of it at least once.
Previously, with the ” Alexotos Edition Switches ” project, we created custom key switches based on his image colors of orange and white, and now we have not only revived those key switches, but also created a Sonnet in his colors.
This limited Sonnetn is available in two versions.
- Stone & Orange Orange orange accent weight, stone colored top case and polycarbonate bottom case. Limited edition of 200.
- Stone & Copper Super heavyweight model with full copper bottom case, copper accents and stone colored top case. Limited edition of 10.
As for the switches, the Obscura linear (67gf) was custom made to 58gf.
Unfortunately, the model with the full copper bottom case is already sold out, but the Stone & Orange model is still available.
I can’t wait to see the serial numbered weights through the polycarbonate case.
