Toward the end of 2011, Mediaset put Valerio Cometti in charge of the styling and development of its first and ambitious project in the consumer electronics field. Always in 2011 he launched on the market as art director the brand FEB31ST: innovative brand in luxury eyewear.

In 2012, Valerio Cometti, together with the architect Paolo Balzanelli, unveiled the MuMaC project, the largest museum of the history of coffee machines in the world in Milan: an imposing architecture to celebrate the 100th anniversary of LaCimbali and the prestigious historical collection of Enrico Maltoni.
