Design Notes and Inspiration
Case Design
The case design centers around two main parts: the panel mounted connector and the dual f-rows. The stepped side profile and fluted back accent provide some visual flair to each angle of the keyboard.
Mounting Design
Bowlttleship uses top mounting for a reliable feel and sound with easy assembly. 3 separate plates are used to optimize sound in each area and creating a balanced feel. Relief cuts at each mounting location minimize vibration transfer to the rest of the case.
