"People today stay connected through a variety of portable, electronic devices. Unfortunately, these items are often misplaced or left uncharged. That is why I created The Sanctuary,” says Dominic Symons, Principal of Bluelounge. “The Sanctuary is the ‘universal’ charging station for all of one’s personal electronics. It’s a beautifully simple solution to a real everyday problem."

With The Sanctuary, users can now charge their cell phone, iPod®, PDA and headset simultaneously in one compact location. It contains a universal cell-phone charger compatible with over 1500 electronic devices from over 35 brands and hundreds more via an industry standard USB port. The Sanctuary user can be confident that their personal electronics will be compatible without having to purchase additional tips and connectors.

The Sanctuary performs its functions with ease and elegance. It is conceived for daily use at one’s kitchen counter, bedside table, or office desk. Bluelounge Design's use of quality materials & components has created a prestigious product, combining innovative technology with skilled craftsmanship.
