With the love for math and respect for Leonhard Euler in particular, as well as the passion for Mechanical Keyboards, @iamtienng combined ideas and designed the GMK Euler Keycap set.
Colors are coordinated to create shades reminding us of a chalkboard, which is a familiar tool for mathematicians with its gray-adjacent color scheme. GMK CR and GMK WS1 are the colors of choice for Modifier Keys, for the Alphas the set features RAL 9017 along with GMK WS1 to create a different combination next to the Modifier Keys but still remain to hold a strong connection with the main theme. Finally, a few Accent Keys with a combination of RAL 9022 and GMK WS1 representing the white of the chalks while taking advantage of GMK’s largest alluring capability, which is the Double shot technology, that enables Legend colors to be brighter than the Base color.
Novelties are constituted by Euler's two most famous constants. The first one is γ (gamma) called Euler's constant (sometimes also referred to as the Euler–Mascheroni constant), which is defined as the limiting difference between the harmonic series and the natural logarithm.
The second constant e, Euler's number, is a mathematical constant approximately equal to 2.71828 which can be characterized in many ways. It is the base of the natural logarithms. With a key with a length of 2.25u, it is dedicated to represent Euler’s Identity: 'The Most Beautiful Equation'.
At last, to turn ideas into keycaps in a better way, the set chose Euler characteristics for side and special keys. It is a topological invariant, a number that describes a topological space's shape or structure regardless of the way it is bent. The polyhedral in novelties are Icosahedron, Tetrahedron, Hexahedron, Octahedron and Dodecahedron.
When it comes to the Deskmat, except for the two drawings at the left and right parts of the design area, all the writing as well as the mathematical equations shown are completely handwritten without using any built fonts.
Last but not least, in collaboration with HIBI, created the idea for a three-dimensional representation of the Icosahedron perfect on their artisan.
The GMK Euler & HIBI — Icosahedron is made up of two separate parts, the Base part includes the MX Mount and is anodized in GMK CR. The Icosahedron part is decoupled and anodized in RAL 9022.

The images shown are used for illustrative purposes only. While we aim to accurately estimate and reproduce colors, there may be minor variations in color of the actual product because of the nature of fabric dyes, weather at the time of dying and differences in display output due to lighting and digital photography and color settings and capabilities of monitors.
Product size and dimension information is approximate. We make every effort in providing as accurate information as possible in regard to the product sizing and dimensions. However, due to the nature of the manufacturing process, product sizing may vary slightly.
