Welcome, Welcome, Welcome to episode 9 of dealing in design
I have canned the usual intro because this week we have a lonnnggg episode but don’t let that turn you off, let get right into it.
I really hope you enjoyed lasts weeks episode with Eric Appel from New York.
This week we are in Sydney, at Vampt Vintage with David Beeman.
David is a force of nature, he is charming and charismatic, and he has the insane ability to draw you into his world. He is always full of energy around the clock, he is the guy you can shoot messages or call anytime and no matter what he gets back to you instantly.
Initially we were going to interview both Dave and Maxine Beeman but plans changed and that all good but David really wanted Maxine to be involved because they have done everything together from the start 17 years ago. So I just wanted to point out and make it clear that we are only sitting down with one half of the Vampt Vintage founders and Im so thankful for their time and hospitality
In this interview we also chat all things interior styling with Vampt Vintage super stylist and Milkman ambassador Brendan Clark. Check him out at BJC_creative on the gram.
We also have a round the table chat with Joe Mifsood who has been a prolific dealer in Sydney since the 1980s
He was a dealer to the dealers and He is known as the man who can find you anything.
Super interesting and super insightful. Check him out at Mifsud_J on the Gram that’s MITSUD_J
Alright back to Dave and Vampt Vintage.
We recorded this in their mind-blowing showroom on Elizabeth St Surrey Hills and it was pumping. People everywhere! It was great to see! So don’t be alarmed if you hear some footsteps or chairs being pushed and pulled around by customers in the background.
That’s the Vampt Vintage Vibe, the shop has a super cool feel and such a welcoming culture.
Without further ado I hope you enjoy the wide ranging conversation with David Beeman, Joe Mitsud and Brendan Clark.
Ok that’s it. Enjoy
