K2 Telephone Boxes – The Red Telephone Booth, is a public telephone kiosk designed in 1924 by Giles Gilbert Scott , in United Kingdom.
The first K2 booth was installed in London in 1926, and over the next decade there were already 1,700 similar kiosks throughout the capital.
The red telephone box is often considered a British cultural icon around the world. In 2006, the K2 telephone box was voted one of Britain’s top 10 design icons.
These telephone booths, which have become one of the unofficial symbols of Great Britain, we still see today in the corner of Parliament Square and near the Royal Opera House , near the grand vaulted entrance to the Royal Academy of Arts in London’s Piccadilly Circus , where you can take an unmistakably London photo.
The Red Telephone Box known worldwide and has become, in iconography, the emblematic feature of London and the United Kingdom.
