Ramune60 by Hato

The design of this keyboard was inspired by Ramune, the iconic Japanese soda known for its playful charm and distinctive glass bottle. With its clear lower half filled with fizzy soda, opaque top cap, and signature glass marble sealed inside, the Ramune bottle serves as a direct motif for the keyboard’s form and colour palette.

This keyboard captures the refreshing character of Ramune through both its aesthetics and sound. The low-profile case enhances usability while perfectly matching the light and breezy concept. Additionally, a carefully tested and tuned Poron gasket delivers a crisp and clear typing sound that complements the overall design.

Structure of Ramune60

Ramune60 began with a clear choice — the adoption of the Poron LE-20 gasket mount, which offered the most crisp and classic typing feel among all gasket-based structures I’ve experienced.

The sound profile of Poron LE-20 was already iconic and matched my personal preferences perfectly.
From Kohaku to Keycult, I studied and referenced the compression characteristics and layout of Poron in many renowned keyboards, using them as both benchmarks and sources of inspiration.

In terms of design, my goal was to achieve a fusion of classic and modern aesthetics.
The exposed seam running through the centre of the side profile, the 9-degree typing angle, and the classic bottom case shape all pay homage to traditional design elements.
In contrast, the internal structure, mounting system, and outer housing were all engineered through a modern combination of materials.

This exposed seam along the side not only reinforces the Ramune concept, but also maximizes the effect of underglow lighting.

The top case features Ramune60’s signature cherry lip — a smooth, wide curvature inspired by the soft, flowing lines of a Ramune bottle.
From the side, a thin chamfer line runs downward.
Where the cherry lip meets the chamfer, the chamfer gently fades along the curve of the lip.
This subtle sculptural detail serves as a key visual identity of Ramune60, making the keyboard recognizable by the silhouette of its top case alone.
