ABSTRACT:
A portable and wall mountable apparatus comprising a flexible case having one or more internal compartments for removably receiving stiffeners to thereby form a pair of panels. The panels are pivotally joined and fold shut against each other to form a portable carrier for articles such as architectural plans and the like. Handles are attached to the flexible case to facilitate transport. A plurality of tabs with grommets are attached to the flexible case to allow the panels to be removably mounted to a wall such that one of the panels may be used as a desktop or workspace. One or more restraining devices suspend the panel being used as a desktop or workplace in a horizontal position when the case is mounted to a wall. The flexible case may also be conveniently stored by removing the stiffeners when not in use and rolling up the shell into a compact shape.
