Rakamakafon is a vinyl record pressing plant based in Sofia, Bulgaria. Its visual identity is built around a simple geometric symbol derived from the shape of a spinning record and the mechanics of the pressing process.
The symbol functions as both a logo and a structural device across printed matter, graphics, packaging, and the website. Large elliptical forms reference vinyl grooves, while a restrained palette and industrial layouts emphasize precision, manufacturing, and repetition.
Resist Display is used throughout the identity as the primary typeface. It balances the technical character of the production process with a contemporary cultural and artistic context.
