Encore Series 3

A cinematic build by Robert McCombe

The Encore draws inspiration from classic mechanical keyboards with thick bezels and a chamfered cherry-style front edge. These familiar forms are reimagined with bold, contrasting materials and refined lines, creating a striking yet minimal profile on your desk.
