# Stylishly Modern Phone Booths ROOM Transcribes the Traditional Phone Booth to the Modern Setting By Kalin Ned | Published 2019-01-10 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/modern-phone-booth References: [design-milk](https://design-milk.com/room-brings-a-modern-twist-to-the-classic-phone-booth/) & [getroom](https://getroom.com/) It is the essence of modes of communication to become obsolete as time goes on but ROOM attempts to revive one "outdated" example as a modern phone booth for the office. Through collaborative design program 'Creativity at Work,' the New York-based company aims to aesthetically embellish the office, as well as provide it with a new functional item. ROOM took the format of the phone booth and created a custom space that offers privacy in the ever-evolving work environment that is consistently showing open-concept tendencies. The design boasts a playful, print-focused aesthetic with an adaptable framework that is mobile and soundproof. The modern phone booths are easily assembled in just 30 minutes.
