Reviving an Italian Terminal in MT3

In the mech keys community, retro is always in style. The Camillo keycap set is yet another great example. Inspired by vintage terminals from storied Italian manufacturer Olivetti, Camillo features white alphas, light gray modifiers, and blue legends to intensify the contrast. Executed in our exclusive MT3 profile—a tall, curved profile with scooped tops—the set comes with F and J homing keys to quickly find your place at the keys. The unique slant across each row is ergonomically designed for comfort. For durability, the keycaps feature a doubleshot ABS construction with legends that won’t fade.

Feel the Difference of MT3 Profile

To understand the appeal of MT3 profile, you have to understand its history. Many old computer terminals were constructed with a slanted switch layout from front to back. Because of that slant, the keycaps sat at an angle atop the switches. MT3 profile is a reimagination of that unique slanted build, but optimized for modern keyboards. Based on iconic IBM beamspring terminals of the 1970s, it’s sculpted with a prominent curve that extends across each row. On top of that, MT3 features scooped keys to help orient your fingers on the keyboard. Thanks to some significant design work from Matt3o, 3D modeling, and a whole lot of elbow grease, we're proud to continue bringing this innovative profile to life.
