The conceptual Ripple Turntable has been designed by Pelin Özbalcı as a fixture for the modern home that would provide audiophiles with a style-conscious way to enjoy their favorite LPs.
The record player is entirely white in finish with a section for the vinyl disc itself as well as for the swing arm, which is imagined with a gilded aesthetic. The base of each individual section features ripples on the surface that move out from the center before intersecting with one another for a perplexing yet posh final aesthetic.
The conceptual Ripple Turntable appears to draw inspiration from minimalist design aesthetics and will fit in perfectly with Japanese or Scandinavian-inspired spaces where the attention is on a handful of carefully chosen pieces.
