Meet the team. . .
Tia Evans
Our Founder and Creative Director
Tia found the world of bike bag making before a transformative trip to Japan in early 2018.
Inspired by the need for practical and stylish gear, she embarked on the journey of crafting her own canvas bike bags for the trip (on a tiny little domestic sewing machine!).
Equipped with a background in visual arts and textile design, she blends functionality and aesthetics seamlessly in her creations.
Her dedication to the craft has earned her recognition among fellow cyclists and outdoor enthusiasts seeking high-quality and locally made gear.
Michelle Brancatisano
Our Production Manager
Michelle and Tia explored the realms of Textile Design together at RMIT many moons ago.
Michelle joined Framework Designs in 2023 and transformed a one woman operation into a dynamic duo.
Her extraordinary sewing and organisational skills have been a game-changer at the sewing table!
That's all of us!
(If we seem like a bigger team, thank you
we work very hard.)
" Every now and again, I meet someone from our little corner of the bike industry who reignites my love for this community, and Tia is one of those people.
Framework Designs creates functional yet stylish bags with a distinct look, but it’s more than just earth-toned canvas and carefully considered aesthetics that set her apart from other bag makers. I appreciate that she isn’t designing bags to fit into a certain box and is instead leaning into what she knows and what she’s passionate about. "
