A Retro Phone Booth Revival: Bringing Communication Back to Public Spaces in the Digital Age

In the 1990s, France had a vast network of telephone booths before they disappeared from the landscape in the mid-2010s. With the end of universal payphone service in municipalities covered by 2G/3G, these iconic structures vanished. However, two cooperative companies, Telecoop and Commown, are planning to restore this equipment in a digital version. They are installing a first cabin connected to 4G with free access on Wednesday June 19 in Strasbourg, hoping that their concept will be replicated throughout France. Users will have the option to make phone calls or receive calls using a vintage 1963 Socotel with a rotary dial or the speaker of a modern tablet inside a purple wooden booth.
