Struggling with bottom case design - feels bulky and not modern
I’m designing a small macro pad / keypad and I’m not happy with how the bottom case is turning out.
The top “PCB” is purely aesthetic (not structural or functional), so the bottom case is doing most of the visual heavy lifting.
Right now it feels too bulky and a bit like a prototype rather than a finished product.
I’m aiming for something more:
- modern
- minimal
- visually lighter
but I’m not sure what specific changes would get me there.
I’d really appreciate feedback on:
- proportions (height, footprint)
- edge treatment (fillets vs chamfers)
- overall silhouette
- anything that makes it feel more “intentional”
Be as critical as you want - trying to improve the design, not defend it.
(Happy to iterate and post revisions if helpful.)
