Stratum-80 is Artifact Industries' next-generation TKL (80%) keyboard built around a "Stratum" & archeological design language: stacked, rugged layers with clean geometry—designed to feel like a collectible "artifact from the future."

What makes it different

Flex Brick Isolation System (tool-less / mod-first)
Flex Bricks acoustically decouple the board from the case so users can tune sound and feel. 3 sets of Flex Bricks (Soft-Medium-Hard) are included in the base package.
Indirect full RGB accent (25 LEDs)
A smooth light strip at the back of the top cover that also highlights the milled bottom texture. Fully customizable RGB via 25 LEDs.
Modular, magnetically coupled architecture
"Sandwich mount" build with magnetic coupling; PCB/daughterboard connect via magnetically coupled pogo-pin connection (hotswap M/B + custom D/B).

Every keyboard ships in a custom Artifact travel case designed to be reusable for meetups and transport. An optional add-on wristrest is also available, featuring a layered design with an aluminum base (Charcoal Black) and frosted PMMA top, weighing 800 g. The wristrest is not included in the keyboard kit and can be added separately.

It started with a conversation when the world was quiet.

Artifact Industries was born from a connection between two studios, continents apart but united by a shared conviction: the objects we bring into our lives should mean something. During the isolation of the pandemic, Taiwan's Hurbon International Ltd. and Germany's Noto Design GmbH crossed paths. As product enthusiasts, we realized we were two halves of the same whole.

But our partnership is only the beginning; the true foundation of Artifact Industries is the people we build for. Every product begins with empathy for the user. We design around how an object feels in your hands, how it performs under pressure, and how it elevates your daily rituals. This deep care for the user experience drives every decision we make.

Noto speaks the language of form and emotion, shaping intuitive designs that feel like a natural extension of yourself. Hurbon answers with engineering precision, mastering the materials and manufacturing processes needed to turn those designs into resilient physical realities.

By combining German design sensibility with Taiwanese engineering experience, Artifact Industries crafts modern artifacts that resonate with your personal taste and stand the test of time. We simply build thoughtful, uncompromising tools for people who care about the details as much as we do.
