The idea of the NoPhone spawned from a night at a bar where the designers regularly hang out and socialize. And by “socialize”, we mean stare at our phones and occasionally look up from our screens to order another round, which is the norm nowadays. We see it everywhere. Couples on dates illuminated not by candles, but by glowing screens. Concerts where you can only see the performer through the attempted videography of the people standing in front of you. We’re so addicted, just the feeling of a phone in our hands is comforting. So we decided to create the NoPhone; a satirical security blanket of sorts, meant to comment on our present addiction to technology.
