ABOUT THE CLIENT
Turntable Teachers is a Boston-based podcast and creative platform highlighting local musicians, educators, and storytellers who shape New England’s culture. What began as a grassroots project quickly evolved into a community-driven brand celebrating the intersection of music, mentorship, and conversation.
As the podcast’s audience and scope grew, the team recognized the need for a logo and visual system that could match their evolving professionalism while retaining the authentic, nostalgic vibe their listeners connected with.
INSPO BEHIND THE DESIGN
The Turntable Teachers identity was inspired by the intersection of music, storytelling, and community. The design combines vinyl record iconography with modern, structured typography to capture both the nostalgic roots of classic music culture and the forward-thinking nature of today’s creative scene. The circular grooves convey rhythm, conversation, and connection—echoing the podcast’s flow of ideas and dialogue. By blending retro warmth with contemporary simplicity, the brand reflects Turntable Teachers’ mission to bridge generations of artists, celebrate learning through music, and give voice to those shaping New England’s creative landscape.
