MONOKEI x TGR

Let's take it back to December 2017, coffee and cakes in Petaling Jaya, KL. Enthusiasts from Malaysia, Indonesia and Singapore all crowding around a long table talking keyboards while puzzled baristas couldn't make sense of the items brought out of informal bags, wrapped in cloth.

Over the years, Yuktsi (Sam) and the MONOKEI team (including our friends Artemie and Lewynlight) have always shared a love for keyboards and food. From roasts in the MONOKEI household to drinks in the streets of KL, we've shared many conversations revolving around keyboards and culinary delights. This collaboration is a particularly exciting one that we've been working on with Sam for the better part of 2020-2021, and we've worked hard to bring a design from TGR made slightly more accessible for everyone.

The MONOKEI x TGR Tomo is a 75% top mount keyboard with enough space for an o ring mounted build should the user chooses to do so, paired with a daughterboard configuration (USB-C) and the same rubber feet as our previous releases.

We've also chosen to forgo a knob and instead utilise a rounded badge as a throwback to famous TGR iterations such as the 910.
