British phone booths are more than just nostalgic relics. They can become impressive design elements in modern gardens or interiors. In this article, we show you the transformation of such a phone booth and provide inspiration for your own projects.

 

History of British Phone Booths:

The iconic red phone booths, designed by Sir Giles Gilbert Scott in 1924, have been a staple of the British streetscape ever since. Especially the K6 model, introduced in 1935 to mark King George V's silver jubilee, became widespread nationwide and continues to shape the image of Great Britain today.

 

The Restoration Process:

Our experts began with a thorough cleaning and removal of the old paint. Damaged parts were replaced or repaired. The phone booth then received its characteristic red paint, making it shine in new splendor.

 

Creative Uses:

Restored phone booths can be used in a variety of ways: as a bookshelf, mini café, information center, or even an art gallery. Your creativity knows no bounds.
