The brighter the light, the darker the shadow.

INSPIRATION
This is the beginning where time will be bookmarked. Light and dark play a pivotal role in the perception of this event. This design speaks to the illusion of shape and color. We only understand form when light makes shadow; they are inherent to each other. There are no absolutes when each depends on the other for clarity.
MATERIALS
Chassis is machined from 6000 series aluminum for its superior quality. It is finished with a custom surface blasting and color anodization, a dark grey with green-blue shifts like a falling star. The weight is made from stainless steel and is glass blasted for improved durably.
Finished with a handmade Fracture emblem. This part is forged, enameled, and polished by hand. This piece of jewelry is a welcomed human touch that grabs the eye as it plays off the cold, precise machining of the chassis.
DESIGN
8° chassis with minimal front height for maximum typing comfort. Integrated 8 point silicone force break to prevent unpleasant resonance. Sound travels uninterrupted between PCB and bottom aluminum case, producing a uniform and bright sound signature.
Offering three different mount systems, each with optimized locations. Magnetic, swappable back pieces and Cable Shield for straightforward build process.
