LYRA 

Form development, material exploration

LYRA turntable builds a case out of a unique approach to a retro technology by combining acoustic, natural materials such as ceramics to drive a unique, reverberating audio quality to contribute to the novelty of the tried-and-true audio listening device. The fresh form makes a statement and is comprised of an ABS housing encasing slip-casted porcelain forms. 
Problem Statement
