About Free and Easy Slojnica
Prosto in Enostavno je slikarsko stojalo, zasnovano za majhne ateljeje, likovne učilnice in skiciranje na prostem. Običajna trikotna stojala med shranjevanjem in transportom zavzemajo veliko prostora ter ovirajo pogled med umetniki in učitelji. Prosto in Enostavno ima v zloženem stanju ploščato in kompaktno obliko, kar prihrani prostor in zmanjša stroške transporta. Okvir je izdelan iz lesa in tehnične najlonske plastike, s kovinskimi pritrdilnimi elementi in magneti. Dve plastični kolesci omogočata prilagajanje višine risalne deske. Kombiniran pokrov škatle, ki služi tudi kot paleta, omogoča, da so slikarska orodja vedno v dosegu roke.

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
- As an important part of painting tools, easel is an indispensable tool for every painting enthusiast and professional workers. By observing the market of painting supplies, you can easily find that the renewal and iteration of painting related products are very slow, many painting products lack of revolutionary ideas and product upgrading. Based on the market research and field visit of easel, designers puts forward a solutions, that is Free and Easy , to the existing problems of easel products from the perspective of productization.
- Inspiration
- At present, similar easels waste a lot of space for gathering and storage, inconvenient transportation and cost increase, especially for schools and arts studios. 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.
- Project Duration

Picture box cover plate and color palette combined in one of the design not only save space but also makes users more easier in taking their placed painting material. On the support bar of the easel, the position limit Angle of the u-shaped metal clip is placed on the top of the support bar.
