“Lupa” swivel concept phone

There has been a plethora of concept phones recently and one designed by Mac Funamizu caught my attention.

His design called “Lupa” is pretty stellar. It is your basic candy bar style phone that swivels to reveal a touchscreen. Kinda looks like a iPod/iPhone of sorts, or even very similar to the Motorola Aura. The cool aspect of this design is that it’s so simple and can possibly be made. I would imagine if you are watching video or surfing the internet the transparent screen would somewhat be like a hologram.

Lots of options seem to be available on this concept phone – E-mail, Video, Internet, adjusting your pictures…
