Valet
by Twelve South
Challenge
Wireless chargers live in the home but rarely belong there with bright white plastics and cold metals.
The goal wasn’t to design another charger. It was to design something that felt at home.
Nightstands are shrinking. Surfaces are layered. Charging needed to integrate — not intrude.
Insight
Charging happens at the bedside, on a console. In rooms designed for rest. If technology lives there, it must shed tech cues and adopt the language of home.
People want one purposeful place for essentials that works with their surfaces and routines, not another object competing for space.
Design Approach
Home, not tech
Architectural form wrapped in soft leather. Neutral tones that blend into diverse interiors. It reads as home first, technology second.
Multi orientation tray
Valet adapts to your surface. Hidden cable routing allows rotation and use in narrow spaces.
Pebble wireless charger
Magnetic Qi2 coil nested inside an object meant to hold essentials. A subtle LED glow confirms charging without distraction.
Integrated USB C output
Frees the wall outlet and supports a second device. In the bedroom, that extra port matters.
Outcome
Valet transforms charging from a visible utility into a quiet ritual.
It organizes.
It integrates.
It disappears.
