Great design brings out the collector in all of us, and this event celebrates this infatuation. Here’s your chance to get an insight into a collector’s endless love affair with found and fabulous objects. Architect & Creative Director Alex Ritchie of E2, Vogue Living’s Contributing Editor Antonia Williams, Sociology Professor Adrian Franklin of The Collectors and others discuss and display their most beloved and coveted pieces of furniture and design. If you too are a dedicated collector, bring along your own piece of ‘holy grail’ to share with the design-savvy punters on the night. Following the talk, the collections of each of these design devotees will be on display as part of the Collectors’ Objects of Desire & Design exhibition in store for the duration of the festival at Vampt Vintage Design.
