Vintage Audio Player
Inspired by some of Dieter Rams’ most iconic work blending minimalist man-made light materials with rich accents from nature. Each element is intended to emulate a physical switch, knob, grabber, or piece of material, making it clear what can be interacted with. Layering creates more defined relationships between interface elements.
The waveform fluidly transitions as you advance to the next track, changing both the needle’s position and waveform’s shape. The dial allows for playback switching, rotating with the same motion as a mechanical dial. Listeners can see what’s up next and rearrange the queue with a swipe. In dark mode, each element dims and the wooden accents adopt an even richer stain.
