Slate Zero by Atelier Magnus
A 60% keyboard refined to what matters.
Introducing Slate Zero.
Slate Zero is a symmetrical 60% keyboard shaped by the measured restraint of early computing. Every element is considered through the lens of zero excess, zero distraction, and a return to essential form. The result is a primitive rectangular form that feels calm, balanced, and clear, grounded by a true zero-degree typing angle both visually and in use.
Balanced by design

![]()
Slate Zero carries a sense of order that feels immediate. The symmetry of the 60% layout, paired with clean geometry and measured proportions, gives the keyboard a composed presence on the desk. It feels visually settled rather than demanding, with a clarity that becomes more apparent the longer you live with it.
Less with Purpose

The edge of the board is drawn inward, a quiet detail that guides attention towards the centre. It is a small inversion, subtle and deliberate. Change does not need to be bold. It can be calm, measured and intentional.


The board sits level on a desk at a true zero degree typing angle, keeping your hands in a natural, grounded position. For moments when a slight incline feels right, a five degree riser is available, giving you the option to adjust without disturbing the clarity of the overall design.
Quiet flexibility, built in


The internal structure uses a PCB mount on a silicone gasket, isolating the subassembly from the aluminium case. The rear features a selector switch for Mac and Windows compatibility, USB-C connectivity for a reliable wired connection, and a coated copper cover for protection.

Multi-layout support
STEPPED CAPS LOCK, ISO ENTER, SPLIT BACKSPACE, SPLIT RIGHT SHIFT, ISO LEFT SHIFT.
