The Post A Phone Concept

Spotted on Core77, via dezeen, the Post A Phone. A 4mm thick landline telephone, made from recycled cardboard or plastic, incorporated within an A5 envelope.

Invented by Priestman Goode, one of the UK’s leading design consultants The Post A Phone is meant "to supply a simple and cheap landline phone, made from recyclable materials that can be sent in the post."

'In a time when mobile phones are seen as throwaway fashion items, this design provides a low tech alternative with simple, no fuss delivery. Fancy details and function are not what this phone is about but there is a desirability in its simplicity and I hope that this is a phone you would want to keep for some time."
