British designer Kyle Bean’s latest creation shows the evolution of mobile phones, matryoshka style.

I vaguely remember my parents having a gray version of the second phone from the left in our minivan, and my first cell phone looked remarkably like the third from the right.

Check out more on this project and others (like The Future of Books) on Kyle’s portfolio.
