Design Concept: Paper Cellphone
A group of designers have developped a paper phone concept called “Paper Says” - for international roaming and not to have to worry about losing or breaking a rented phone while on a trip.
Yanko Design writes: "Paper says" is a mobile phone which can be recycled. Its price is low and it can be bought anywhere. It doesn't matter if it is dirtied or lost. Even overseas travelers can communicate anytime anywhere and don't consider the location of booths. It can be bought easily in every country's state-owned organization such as airport and museums, and privately owned institutions.
The design characters are easy-handling, simple, convenient and recyclable. The characters agree with the purpose of Tetra Pak. For dialing, you simply tear the paper along the dotted line and the paper's back.
