Cometa
Hi-Fi Rotary Mixers
Project Information
When Cometa set out to bring the M2 to life — a rotary club mixer, home blending preamplifier, and high-fidelity platform — the brief was more than functional. They needed a brand identity powerful enough to carry sonic ambition and emotional intention. D&C came in as a thought partner to define how Cometa speaks, feels, and surfaces: a brand grounded in analog integrity, but unapologetically modern in vision. Our work began with narrative scaffolding—how Cometa defines “warmth” in audio, how it bridges DJ table and listening room, how design cues should echo signal purity.
From that foundation we built the visual language and extended it into industrial form. The identity system leans into contrast, clarity, and tactility; branding architecture, mark geometry, typography, and color set the stage. In parallel, those principles informed industrial design decisions: knob proportions, the ladder of LED VU meters, hinge structure, surface treatments. The result is the M2 — not just a mixer, but a realization of the brand identity in three dimensions. When audio professionals and collectors pick it up, they sense not just craftsmanship, but the brand voice in their hands.
