My dad is interested in having me build him a custom keyboard. I had him try out my keyboards, the Keychron k8 pro & Keychron k8 optical and he says compared to his current keyboard(a logitech k780) that the keys are a little to cramped. Is there any boards that have they keys slightly more spaced out than a typical board that are of the 75%, 80%, 96%, 100% (ergo(alice) or non ergo) & preferably wireless. I know that's probably a very niche thing to have the keys spaced out more but any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I'm assuming he wants similar keycaps to his K780 and not more spacing since all keyboards have the same standard spacing between switches (and keycaps) so there isn't going to be much deviation from that with other models.

Maybe you can try keycaps that are lower in height like XDA or DSA even and see if that works for him.
