Northside Design Ride is an invitation to embrace the art of taking it slow, on two wheels, and to see the city through a different lens. We’re partnering with WALKENS House of Film, who have become a home for those seeking an analogue lifestyle in our digital world. Their expert Film Lab team will be processing our films and the moments captured from our ride. WALKENS House of Film is an independent film photography store and film lab, dedicated to making shooting film easy for all. Supplying film and camera essentials to Aussies and abroad for over ten years, WALKENS was born in a time when film was expensive, hard to find, and came with no customer service. WALKENS’ goal has always been to create a welcoming, inclusive space packed with all sorts of photography fun and related gear. This philosophy informed the fit-out of their Fitzroy store (designed by the WALKENS team themselves), featuring a distinct mid-century aesthetic with warm lighting, rich materials, iconic 35mm film display wall, and good old-fashioned friendly service!

Saturday 23 May, 9am–12pm All wheels welcome Zachary Frankel’s multidisciplinary practice encompasses furniture, lighting, sculpture, and objects. His work often draws inspiration from historical styles, reinterpreting them through a contemporary lens. Whether crafting by hand or employing modern technology, Frankel believes in the value of all tools and techniques, seeing each as an opportunity to push the boundaries of design. This philosophy results in pieces that blur the lines between functional design and sculptural art, offering a unique perspective in the design landscape. Monde Studio, founded by Tilly Barber, produces universal modular seating that is made in Australia and designed to be used, not preserved.Modelled on the contours of the human form, the sweeping curves of The Monde Seating System commands comfort in a relaxed, reclined position. They are sculpted from Green Tag certified foam, paying equal ode to ergonomics and the environment. With no internal mechanisms or complex parts, Monde’s philosophy resists cyclical trends and planned obsolescence in furniture manufacturing, producing products designed to be passed from one generation to the next.  Northside Design Ride is a Melbourne Design Week event.
