My favorite GHIBLI inspired keeb! 🌱
Since i always get quite a few questions about this keyboard, i thought i do make a post about it!
I've got this keyboard for a few years already and it's an old model from the brand 'Yunzii Keyboards', but it's a 60% layout keyboard that was all white! these are still easy to find from various brands if you would like something similar. The keycaps are custom made through 'Goblin Tech Keys'! You're able to design the keycaps however you want, and add any PNGS that you like for your design. In my case, i went for the Totoro and Ghibli animations for some of my keycaps!
Down to the colors, you're free to design it however you like! I simply looked up some color combo's online and used the eyedropper tool on the website to get the exact colors for the keycaps!

So many of you asked about my Ghibli keeb, and I love seeing your enthusiasm for custom setups! Building a themed keyboard is such a fun way to personalize your workspace and bring joy to your everyday tasks. Since my original post, I've had even more thoughts on making your custom keyboard truly yours, especially if you're looking for Ghibli keycaps or a full custom keeb build. While my keyboard features adorable Totoro keycaps, the beauty of custom designs means you're not limited to just one film! I've seen incredible Spirited Away keycaps with No-Face or Boh, or charming Kiki's Delivery Service themes. When you're designing, think about which characters or iconic scenes you want on your specific keys. For instance, you could have a soot sprite on your ESC key or a forest spirit on your spacebar. For my own custom cream and light brown keycaps, I specifically placed various Totoro designs on frequently used keys like Shift, Ctrl, Tab, and Backspace, which really makes them pop and adds that personal touch I adore. This is where services like Goblin Tech Keys truly shine, allowing you to bring any PNGs to life on your keycaps. Finding the perfect base keyboard is absolutely key to starting your custom build. Mine is an older Yunzii 60% layout, which is a fantastic compact size for a clean desk setup. If you're looking for something similar today, many brands offer white 60% layout mechanical keyboards that are perfect for customization. When choosing, always check keycap compatibility – most custom sets use standard Cherry MX stems, but it's good to double-check before ordering. A solid, reliable base ensures your beautiful custom keycaps have a great home and feel satisfying to type on. Don't forget, the material matters too; while mine isn't explicitly aluminum, the feel and sound of different bases can vary greatly. Working with services like Goblin Tech Keys was a breeze for my custom keycaps. Beyond just images and colors, think about the legends (the letters/symbols) on your keys. Do you want simple, clean legends, or something themed? My advice is to play around with lighter, cozy color palettes, just like the Ghibli aesthetic often uses. An eyedropper tool on their design site helps you match colors perfectly to your favorite Ghibli scenes, ensuring your keycaps look cohesive and professional. Finally, a Ghibli keyboard isn't just about the keys; it's about creating an entire vibe! As you can see, my white 60% layout mechanical keyboard sits perfectly on a light desk mat, surrounded by my mouse and other desk essentials. Consider a coiled white cable in a matching color to complete the look. It's all about making your workspace a reflection of your personality and passions. What Ghibli movie inspires your dream setup?
These are gorgeous 😍
