- Create something memorable and distinct from competing podcasts
## Examples
For a true crime podcast called "Cold Cases":
- A minimalist design featuring a fingerprint forming an icy snowflake pattern
- Deep blue and white color scheme with red accent
- Modern sans-serif typography with distressed edges
- Works in circular podcast app icons while maintaining recognizability
For a business leadership podcast called "Corner Office":
- A sleek, modern design featuring an abstract corner of an office building
- Navy blue, gold, and gray professional color palette
- Clean, authoritative serif font for title text
- Simple enough to be recognized at thumbnail size
Remember to create a unique, professional design that will help the podcast stand out while accurately representing its content and appealing to its target audience.
