Fish Tank Phone Booth

Spotted on OhGizmo via DVICE, a fish tank phone booth.

It was designed by Benedetto Bufalino as part of the December Lyon Light Festival. In the designers own words:

“With the advent of the mobile telephone, telephone booths lie unused. We rediscover this glass cage transformed into an aquarium, full of exotically coloured fish; an invitation to escape and travel.”

Also by the same designer, totally unrelated to cell phones but completely wonderful, a s series of sun hats, titled "Corniche des Chapeaux".
