GMK CYL Beige Boogaloo, a Cherry-profile keycap set designed by Riley Onyon and Alexotos, is available to order from KBDfans, NovelKeys and Proto[Typist]. The group buy runs from November 6 through November 27, 2026.

Darker alphas and lighter modifiers

The designers reverse the usual two-tone beige arrangement by making the letter keys darker than the modifiers. The legends stay in the beige family. GMK’s FX treatment gives some of the sample caps a streaked appearance, and the accent keys add blue, orange and green.

GMK makes the set in doubleshot ABS with its sculpted CYL profile. The caps fit Cherry MX and compatible switches. The design notes credit Nephlock with helping develop the set.
