Roll It Sketch Board

Roll it Sketch board is an innovative portable sketching solution designed to address the common challenge faced by designers who need to transport their sketching surfaces while maintaining professional standards. This ingenious design, created by Sattar Sa'adatmand and Rooholah Merikhpour, consists of a series of precision-engineered poly-wood segments that are expertly attached to a durable fabric backing using specialized adhesive technology. The distinctive construction allows the board to maintain structural integrity and provide a reliable flat surface for sketching while possessing the unique ability to be rolled up for convenient transportation. Measuring 31x22x1 centimeters, the board accommodates A4-sized paper and seamlessly integrates into contemporary portable design workflows. The product's development was driven by careful observation of designer behavior, particularly noting how professionals often resort to rolling their sketching papers due to space constraints in their carrying bags. The innovative use of Computer Numerical Control (CNC) manufacturing in shaping the poly-wood segments ensures precise dimensioning and consistent quality, while the specialized bonding technique maintains flexibility without compromising durability. This groundbreaking approach to portable sketching equipment earned recognition with a Silver A' Design Award in the Art and Stationery Supplies Design category, acknowledging its contribution to solving a practical challenge in the design profession through innovative material application and user-centered design principles. The product exemplifies the intersection of functionality and portability, offering a professional-grade sketching surface that adapts to modern mobile working requirements without sacrificing performance or convenience.
