For creative professionals, the tools on your desk are never just functional necessities; they are extensions of how you think, design, and create. The cadence of typing, the precision of a mouse, and the visual balance of a workspace all quietly influence focus, flow, and creative clarity.
Apple’s Magic Keyboard and Magic Mouse are introduced in a single, deliberate expression: Silver and White. This restrained palette is not about decoration; it’s about neutrality. Designed to be visually unobtrusive and universally adaptable, these original Apple tools are intended to integrate seamlessly into any creative environment, offering consistency, performance, and familiarity without imposing a distinct identity.
Yet creative work rarely stops at the default.
The simplicity of the Silver and White Magic Keyboard and Mouse leaves intentional room for interpretation. It invites refinement without distraction, allowing craftsmanship, character, and individuality to emerge while preserving the integrity of the original Apple experience. This is where customization becomes purposeful, and where Craft by Merlin transforms original Apple tools into personalized creative instruments, built not to stand apart from your workflow, but to belong to it.
Craft by Merlin: Customizing the Original Apple Experience
At Craft by Merlin, customization begins with respect for the original. Every Magic Keyboard and Magic Mouse starts as a genuine Apple product and is elevated through careful, hands-on craftsmanship—without altering performance or reliability.
Each keyboard and mouse is finished with a durable, three-layer hand-painted coating, available in 50+ color options, applied to enhance character without excess. This process creates a surface that is visually distinctive, scratch-resistant, and fade-resistant, while built-in rechargeable batteries last for weeks, keeping desks uncluttered and creative sessions uninterrupted.
Apple functionality remains untouched. The Magic Keyboard retains its precise scissor-switch feel, while the Magic Mouse continues to deliver fluid multi-touch control and intuitive navigation, ensuring seamless performance across creative workflows.

Why Custom Tools Matter?
A thoughtfully customized keyboard and mouse can subtly influence how a workspace feels and functions. When tools look intentional, they bring a sense of order—helping daily tasks feel more structured and focused. For many users, this visual clarity supports concentration, particularly during extended work sessions or creative periods.
Customization also introduces a sense of familiarity. Over time, a personalized setup feels less like an accessory and more like a natural part of the routine. Whether working from home, in a studio, or while traveling, tools that align with personal preferences tend to feel more comfortable and easier to return to each day.
This balance between consistency and individuality is what many users appreciate most: tools that integrate smoothly into everyday life while still reflecting personal choice.
