THE MYTH

In Greek mythology, the Dioscuri were the twin brothers Castor and Pollux, bound by an unbreakable bond despite one being mortal and the other immortal. When Castor died, Pollux chose to share his immortality rather than live without his brother, and Zeus placed them together among the stars as the constellation Gemini. Their story endures as a symbol of devotion, sacrifice, and a bond that transcends mortality.

THE EXPERIMENT

The sale format began as an experiment in trust. At the time, I found the design process itself far more rewarding than the endless cycle of public feedback, so I often worked in secret and only shared projects once they were fully formed. Through this project I wanted to push that concept to its limit: an omakase-style keyboard where customers would know nothing beyond the name and price, placing their faith entirely in the designer's vision. Nearly 100 people entered the raffle for one of 25 available units, a show of trust that remains one of the aspects of the project I am most proud of.
