Mettek is a DJ duo that emerged from the vibrant music scene of Marrakech. Their name, derived from the word métèque, reflects their identity as two foreigners with no direct ties to Morocco, yet deeply connected to the city as the birthplace of their musical journey.

Overview

Creating a visual identity for Mettek required starting from a blank slate in an industry where branding is fluid, expressive, and deeply tied to artistic identity. Unlike traditional branding projects that include defined color palettes and typography systems, music branding relies heavily on mood and atmosphere. The challenge was to develop a logo that was bold, recognizable, and adaptable, while staying true to the duo’s personality and the immersive nature of their music.

Strategy

Instead of a plain typography logo, the design introduces an iconic star-like element, representing both members while evoking the idea of movement, energy, and the transporting nature of their music. The branding is built around a modular system with primary and alternative logos, allowing flexibility in usage across digital and physical mediums.
