Lawrence R. Armstrong, in partnership with Volonic, a luxury consumer technology company, today announced the launch of Volonic’s “Artist Series” – the latest in the company’s line of handcrafted wireless chargers. The Artist Series celebrates artists as creative trailblazers who “dare to imagine a more elegant, yet functional world,” and joins Volonic’s Aluminum and Grand Piano collections. Armstrong is the first artist to be commissioned for the Artist Series, and all proceeds from sales will be donated to charities and non-profit organizations of his choosing. His creations will be featured for a limited time.

The Volonic device that Armstrong used as canvas for his designs, the “Volonic Valet 3,” is an elegant position-free wireless charging solution that powers Qi-enabled devices. Each Volonic Valet 3 that Armstrong designs is completely unique, and sold preconfigured with a high gloss white aluminum frame, 100% genuine leather top, white wall charger and 6ft USB-C cable.

“My work, both in art and architecture, is an ongoing exploration of the concept of layers,” said Lawrence R. Armstrong. “I have always been aware of and fascinated by layers in the natural and built environment. My inspiration for Volonic’s Artist Series was the natural tension between the opposing forces of free form and precision.”

“Lawrence R. Armstrong, is a world-renowned artist, architect, business leader, and dear friend. We were excited when he accepted our request to debut the Artist Series,” said Volonic CEO Shawn Dougherty. “As we pull in different artists to design for this series, each will encourage us to view the world, our cultures and each other from a new and beautiful perspective.”
