Agar Micro
Agar Micro condenses the concept of "growth" into its purest form.
Rather than emphasizing the piecing together of structures, it allows the form to flow naturally, as if slowly growing out from a single, solid block of material.
In a size this compact, every single curve is more than just a design choice - it is a restrained expression of "organic form"
Case Design
To design a truly friendly, entry-level 40% Alice keyboard, we optimized the industrial design to solve a unique challenge: fitting a split Alice PCB into a seamless, unified chassis while keeping the Agar Mini's tray-mount structure.
Through extensive testing, we interoduced a "restrained split" on the top case - creating a structural boundary between the two spacebars. This design preserves the clean exterior aesthetic while opening up the necessary internal space for a full, split PCB.
We implemented a standard 7 degree, which strikes oan ideal balance between ergonomic comfort and functionality, while subtly shaping the organization of the internal structure.
The elevated rear profile carves out more absolute space at the bottom. This allows the flexible daughterboard to unfold more freely and opens up the possibility of integrating a larger capacity battery.
The Rabbit Motif
The structural split on the top case led to an unexpected discovery. To fill the gap between the spacebars, we added an independent accent piece that naturally took on the silhouette of a "rabbit's nose"
This accidental detail became the catalyst for the entire design concept. To give this compact, lightweight keyboard a more animate expression, we learned into a "rabbit motif" - from the subtle front icon to the rubber-hose style illustration engraved on the base. It ceases to be just a tool, transforming into a charming companion with a personality of its own.
Ergonomic Refinement
During testing, we notice that typing thumbs could occasionally bump against the case' front edge.
To solve this, we completely re-sculpted the front boundary with two subtle, curved bevels. This replaces the sharp edge with a smooth contour, providing a natural resting position for your thumbs. Remarkably, these functional curves also quietly echo the shap of a rabbit's ears, seamlessly blending ergonomics with our core design language.
