The project
Archicercle designed and produced Faraday boxes for S2 Grupo to hold mobile phones. The commission brought the idea of electromagnetic shielding into an everyday object: a lidded box in which to leave a phone.
The studio’s contribution covered both the design and production of the boxes. The project posts present the finished pieces, with separate bodies and lids, black exteriors and S2 Grupo branding on the lids.
The contrast between the dark exterior and the metallic-looking inner lining defines the piece. The boxes have a straight-sided geometry, and the different project views document them both open and arranged in groups.
Their stated purpose was to prevent electromagnetic waves from passing through the enclosure around the devices inside. The project presentation suggested everyday occasions for using them — dinner with friends, a work meeting or a board game — as an invitation to put the phone aside.
