RefStage
iOS Universel / Graphisme et design
An infinite canvas for your references, plus a fast library to hold them all. RefStage is built for artists, illustrators, and designers who work from images.
Drop images onto the canvas, arrange them however you think, pull color palettes straight from any reference, and add sticky notes wherever you need them — all in one calm, fast, distraction-free space.
EVERYTHING ON ONE CANVAS
• Infinite drag-and-drop canvas for reference images, notes, and palettes
