Buzzihood by Alain Gilles for Buzzispace
This project designed by Alain Gilles for Buzzispace, is all about personal privacy and well-being. It is about being able to quickly protect yourself from the surrounding world, from a wild bunch of kids playing in your loft, to a host of colleges sharing the same open space office, to make some private calls.
The idea is to feel protect, but not isolated. You regain that too-often-lost privacy associated with the use of mobile phones but you never the less remain in touch with those surrounding you. You do not have to share your private conversations with everyone else and then again in some case you also do not “bother” everyone while on the phone. The concept is of course also reminiscent of those now fast-despairing open phone booth that use to be a common site in our cities, airports and hotel lobbies.
It has been designed in order to be very graphic and architectural. A colorful and lively piece that can bring warmth and personality to an office or trendy loft.
It is made out of recycled fabric, and is available in several colors, including: pink, lime, orange, grey, black and white and in some cases, it can also be customized. There is also the possibility to add-on a special little tablet so one can easily take notes or write down a number while making a phone call.
