Paper80
A Keyboard inspired by the Oscar-winning short film Paperman.
A project driven by the inspiration of the short film Paperman. We're so excited to share with you the Paper 80 designed by Whatever Studio. With so many small details focused on taking the experience to the highest level, we're happy to share more regarding this project and hope our passion is expressed below.

Mid-case Fold Light Design
One of the key features we wanted to add is the Mid-case Fold Light. The sides and back of the PAPER80 fold lines inspired by the Paper Airplane. Lit up, we enjoy a calming glow around the entire keyboard.
If only the sides light up and not the front and back, it looks odd. This inconsistency makes the plastic light guide panel stand out awkwardly against the aluminum.
The material difference could turn a design highlight into a disaster. So, we came up with a floating "mid-case fold light" as our solution. We redesigned the internal space so the mid-case can light up and support the structure without widening the case.
Paper Plane External Weight Logo
We want every design on the PAPER80 to feel seamless, like clouds naturally floating in the sky. We were constantly designing the folds and sharp angles of the paper airplane logo to make it look sharper.
Finally, we got this perfect one, it has very defined folds, a 3D look, and appears to fly out of the surface.
We put a lot of effort into these details, even though users might not notice them, we believe these details show our dedication to perfecting the PAPER 80.
Mounting Style
Instead of a traditional gasket system, we chose a lock-hole gasket mount to minimise keyboard vibrations. This design balances internal space and consistency, offering support with a perceptible yet controlled depression rather than extreme softness.
