A wireless phone dock built for style and utility.

Problem Statement

Modern charging docks lack personality and bedside functionality beyond power delivery. A phone charging dock styled like a retro alarm clock combines nostalgia with modern convenience, offering an organized, visually appealing solution for charging and phone access.

Social Research

These images were taken from creators on Pinterest and Instagram. I was inspired by several of the minimalist designs but none of them quite captured the retro style that I was designing for.
