docomo Premium FOMA is a mobile phone designed in 2003 as a multifunctional business phone, predating the era of smartphones.
Drawing inspiration from traditional personal items like watches, fountain pens, and lighters, which once conveyed their owners' identities, this phone boasts a sleek metal appearance. However, instead of relying on intricate ornamentation, its design revolves around a three-degree-of-freedom hinge that adapts its functionality to various applications. The overall design was crafted to foster intimacy between the user and the device, recognizing that users spend a significant amount of time in close physical proximity to their phones.
