The official Phantom launch party at Colette, Paris. Installation by Rodrigo Aguadé.

From 2014 to 2020, Rodrigo Aguadé shaped Devialet’s image while it grew from around fifty people on Rue Réaumur to 350, and a global name in high-end audio. Called in by Pedro García, then global marketing chief, a few months before the Phantom launched, he created the Phantom logo and its packaging, then supervised everything the company showed of itself: brand image, packaging, campaigns, stores. He worked directly with co-founders Quentin Sannié and Emmanuel Nardin, and with Pedro García.

In the months before launch: the Devialet and Phantom logos, packaging for Phantom, Phantom Silver and their accessories, store displays, the website, the press kit and a 3D film. The Phantom sold out on its first day of sales in 2015. From 2015 to 2018, Rodrigo Aguadé was Devialet’s art director on a monthly retainer: packaging, campaigns, films and retail. He designed the graphics for every Devialet corner and stand, from the product diagrams on the glass to the brand walls, and the store windows for KaDeWe in Berlin, Harrods in London, Le Bon Marché and Printemps in Paris.

Phantom Store

The Devialet store at the Opéra de Paris, with special packaging for the store and for the Opéra edition of the Gold Phantom.

The original Phantom box and every version that followed, across Classic, Silver, Gold, Opéra de Paris and Reactor, each with its own photography. The Gold Phantom cover and launch film were shot in a Paris studio under Rodrigo’s art direction; its unboxing on Unbox Therapy has been watched over 19 million times. In 2020, he named Devialet’s first wireless earbuds: Gemini.
