About Free and Easy Staffeli
Free and Easy er et staffeli designet for små studioer, kunstklasserom og utendørs skissering. Vanlige trekantede stafferier tar stor plass under oppbevaring og transport, og blokkerer sikten mellom kunstnere og lærere. Free and Easy har en flat og kompakt form når det er sammenslått, noe som sparer plass og reduserer transportkostnader. Rammen er laget av tre og nylon teknisk plast, med metallfester og magneter. To plasthjul justerer høyden på tegnebrettet. Et kombinert bokslokk og palett holder maleredskapene lett tilgjengelige.

The challenge of our design is that we cannot find a reasonable way in it’s appearance which is satisfying in function at the beginning. After a certain number of sketching and discussing of our project, we finally find the proper selection which achieves the desired effect.
- Research

- Inspiration

Also, during using time, the existing triangle easels block space, is really affects the sight artists and tutorship of teachers. Free and Easy is a solution for these problems and also can be used in outdoor sketching. It is really easy for users to curry with and also has reasonable space for color palette and painting tools.
