freehand by fabrizio altieri from italy
designer's own words:
Freehand is a disposable plastic plate (Picture 1) with a fixing underneath which allows it to hold firmly a normal disposable plastic cup. In the centre of the plate there is a hole surrounded by a truncated conical fixing in which you are able to insert a straw. This allows you, during a party, to hold with only one hand at the same time both the cup with the straw and the plate (Picture 3). In this way we do not need, as now, to have both hands holding one the drink and the other one the plate with food. We are not obliged anymore to stop and rest on a surface to be able to eat but we can circulate eating and drinking, always with one hand free.
The Freehand can be manufactured in stacks and packaged as a normal disposable plastic plate. It is compatible with any disposable plastic cups and straws (Picture 2).
