Agar
R1 Pre-order before March 9th will ship around mid March, 2025
R2 pre-order add two new colorways, pre-order after March 9th will ship around May, 2025
Following in the footsteps of the Tofu, Pebble, and D60, the Agar emerges as KBDfans’ latest take on the HHKB-style layout.
Available in both MX and EC switch variants, this keyboard combines an elegant aesthetic and a streamlined build with a highly addictive, crisp sound signature
Appearance
In a departure from standard keyboard aesthetics, the Agar makes a daring statement with its curvaceous form. The keyboard is defined by gently flowing curves along nearly every edge, with a smooth, seamless transition that is both cohesive and refined. A uniquely angled slope at the front-right corner provides an instantly recognizable feature, and the arced cutouts on the sides lend a sleek and slender feel.



weight bar
The rear copper weight, whether matched with aluminum or polycarbonate, creates an exquisite harmony and the ‘Starry Sea’ engraving elevates the board’s narrative. May each individual navigate the celestial seas of their own inner cosmos, unburdened and free.


Silicone block mount system
To perfectly complement the silicone block mount system, we’ve custom-molded silicone blockers,
with the precision of the mounting points and the limiting mechanisms extensively tuned for optimal performance.
The key benefits of this design include exceptionally easy barebones installation and removal, as well as a delightful flexible typing feel.
