    Nordic telecommunications company Telia has released a new campaign encouraging customers to disconnect from screens rather than promoting connectivity. Created by Try Olso through Pravda, Pause Box sees a family of four reluctantly hand over their phones to be placed in a special box made from recycled cardboard and designed to hold up to 12 mobile phones. Once freed from their devices, the family reconnect in a weird but wonderful way.
