Designer Boyu & KBDcraft

At the crossroads of technology and creativity, KBDcraft was born. Spearheaded by visionary designer Boyu, this innovative studio is redefining electronic products with modular designs that blend art and functionality. KBDcraft’s keyboards are more than just tools—they’re a celebration of creativity, inspired by the playful yet precise nature of LEGO. Each keyboard is designed to be assembled by the user, much like LEGO bricks, transforming it into a powerful, personalized tool for work and play. And the inspiration behind this unique concept? The 18 Angels from the legendary anime series, Neon Genesis Evangelion.

The Source of Inspiration: Neon Genesis Evangelion and the 18 Angels

Neon Genesis Evangelion is a groundbreaking anime that delves into profound themes like human existence, identity, and the struggle for connection. The 18 Angels (also known as "A.T. Fields") are central to the story, serving as both formidable enemies and symbolic representations of humanity’s deepest fears, desires, and potential. Each Angel has a unique form, ability, and meaning, making them more than just antagonists—they are mirrors reflecting the complexities of human nature.

For Boyu, the Angels became a wellspring of creative inspiration. He saw in them not only a rich visual and narrative tapestry but also a way to connect with users on a deeper level. By translating the essence of each Angel into keyboard designs, Boyu aims to create products that are not only functional but also tell a story.

The Revelation of the 18 Angels: Boyu’s Creative Journey

In the world of Neon Genesis Evangelion, the 18 Angels are more than just threats—they are catalysts for change, pushing humanity to confront its own limitations and potential. For Boyu, these Angels became a metaphor for the creative process itself: a journey of discovery, challenge, and transformation.

Awakening: The Arrival of the Angels and Boyu’s Vision

When the seal of Adam is broken, the 18 Angels awaken, launching a relentless assault on humanity. Each Angel’s unique abilities and forms pose not only a physical threat but also a philosophical challenge to the essence of humanity. Watching Neon Genesis Evangelion, Boyu was captivated by the complexity and symbolism of the Angels. He realized that they were more than enemies—they were reflections of humanity’s inner world: fear, desire, strength, and the unknown.

Boyu decided to weave the stories of these Angels into KBDcraft’s keyboard designs. Through these keyboards, he aims to let users experience the power and beauty of the Angels while prompting deeper reflection on the nature of humanity.

Boyu’s Interaction with the Angels: From Inspiration to Reality

When designing each keyboard, Boyu immerses himself in the background and symbolism of the Angels. He often rewatches Neon Genesis Evangelion, pondering how to translate these abstract concepts into tangible products. Each keyboard design is a dialogue between Boyu and the Angels, a process through which he channels their power and beauty into something users can touch, build, and experience.

KBDcraft’s Future: 14 New Series to Anticipate

KBDcraft has already released four keyboards: Adam, Lilith, Israfel, and Lilin. But Boyu’s journey is far from over. He plans to draw inspiration from the remaining 14 Angels, creating more stunning designs that capture their essence. Each keyboard will tell a unique story, inviting users to explore the world of Neon Genesis Evangelion through the lens of KBDcraft. Boyu hopes these designs will attract more people to the brand, sparking a love for its creativity and vision.
