New technology drives the entire society forward, and some things will be classified as traditions and slowly enter history. "Phone booths" are an example. Since the advent of mobile phones, phone booths have become increasingly difficult to find. It makes people miss the times when I was a kid. I used a coin-operated phone to ask my parents to bring forgotten textbooks to school; It’s a daily thing to deceive public telephone users by saying “this card has not been used yet”.
In the UK, phone boxes suffered the same fate, being left unused one by one and then eliminated. Retail chain Red Kiosk Company believes that these red phone boxes are already part of British cultural icons, and perhaps they can find a way to help them "keep up with the times" instead of abandoning them directly.
So, they launched the "Thinking Outside The Box" plan, first acquiring unloved phone booths, then reselling them to charitable groups at a cheap price, and converting them into "snack vending kiosks", "shoe shine shops" and "coffee shops" "Mini Internet Cafe" and other small shops. The red appearance of the phone booth remains unchanged, but it has been replaced with new interior decoration, anti-riot glass and door locks. It has been turned into a usable space, and the unemployed and homeless will be assisted to rent shops and take over the business as a way for them to return to society. and the starting point of the career.
Red Kiosk CompanyThe practice has found a new meaning for the phone booth. It is not only a traditional cultural feature, but also a window to help the unemployed to become self-reliant. With a new way of operation, it continues to exist on the streets and corners of the UK.
