KeyKollectiv, founded by Kudos and Koala in 2015, filled a market void for cute and unique artisan keycaps, particularly Topre blanks. Their early work, including the Meowcap v1 and Chairman Meow, stood out with their playful aesthetic. KeyKollectiv's innovative use of encapsulated elements, seen in sculpts like Keywalla and Furt, further pushed the boundaries of artisan design. Their influence on the community is significant, inspiring both collectors and makers, and setting the stage for Kudos' future artistic endeavors.
