Customizing Keyboard Aesthetics

As more of us gamers work (and game) from home, customizing our keyboards is a way to make our desk space feel uniquely ours.

Why Customize a Keyboard?

The real question is why not?! Self-expression is everywhere—from the clothes we wear, down to that quirky bump sticker on our car.

So whether you’re going for a sleek home office or an RGB gamer haven, customizing your keyboard ties everything together. And let’s be real, it’s just plain fun.

Designed By You

1. Choose Your Colors

Start with Case Color

Color is the first place to start! Typically, gaming keyboards come in black, white, silver, and sometimes pink (if you’re lucky).

With keyboards like our GMMK 3, you can chose from a whole array of colors like Sage Green, ExoPurple (it’s translucent!), Arcade Pink, and the list goes on. Plus, you can choose different colors for the top and bottom case!

Make it a perfect match by picking colors that pair well with your PC, mouse, and speakers.

2. Pick Your Favorite Keycaps

Keycaps For Everyone

Custom keycaps are like a great pair of sneakers: they’re one of the first thing people notice and they say a lot about your style. Whether you’re going for a clean, minimalist vibe or you’re all about making a statement, the possibilities are endless.

Accent With Accessories

Highly customizable keyboards like GMMK 3 let you take things to the next level. Think swappable accent badges, alternate color rotary knobs, vibrant coiled cables, and beyond.

Though they might seem like minor accessory modifications, they can really unify your keyboard’s aesthetic when matched with the case and keycaps.
