The Ride began as a concept to vary how we sit and share space. The ride developed into a unique structure visually light in weight expressing a simplicity of form and balance.
The Ride is launching at Clerkenwell Design Week 2024. Platform G7 The Ride is on display at Town Hall Hotel, Bethnal Green

The Ride has three main beneficial ergonomic points of difference to conventional seating.
With tilted pelvis, hip widening and angled thighs, the Ride encourages good spine alignment and healthy blood flow.
‘The Ride’ creates a 110° trunk/thigh angle, the pelvis is tilted forward and the
spine adopts a correct alignment. The Ride also helps open up the hips
encouraging lymph flow and blood circulation to the pelvic and thigh area.
"I would have recommended the Ride to very many of my clients over the past
years that I have been practicing."
Patrick - Osteopath practicing for over 24yrs
"As a physiotherapist, and a women with ADHD – I hate sitting still so I love this
chair! It allows me to get comfortable in different positions, which has been great for my back, and gives me variety and tactile feedback which helps me focus. And I love the stylish design!"
Rachel - Physiotherapist
"My activity involves sitting at a desk several hours a day. Since I have been using
the Ride I have had no episode of lower back pain which is my weak point in
periods of stress. The tilt of the seat gives me a sensation of space where I used
to feel tensed. I can get fidgety on my seat after a while and have found my
posture remains comfortable in all sitting configurations.
The Ride is also just a stunning piece of design. There’s something quite
perfect about its proportions, The attention to details put in the frame and leather seat shows and makes one of my favorite objects in the house."
Valerie A N - Trainee Psychotherapist
