    Mikayla Rose | Heartly

    Episode 3 of First Light welcomes Mikayla Rose — founder and creative director of Heartly Design — a designer known for creating homes that feel deeply personal, emotionally connected, and quietly refined. In this conversation, Mikayla opens up about the realities behind running a growing design studio, balancing creativity with motherhood, and the pressure of building spaces that not only look beautiful, but genuinely improve the way people live. We talk about the importance of intuition in design, the emotional connection clients have to their homes, and why timeless spaces are often the result of restraint, honesty, and feeling rather than trends. Mikayla also shares her journey into the industry, lessons learned through business growth, and what inspires her approach to creating warm, layered interiors that feel both elevated and lived in. This episode of First Light is an honest and thoughtful conversation about creativity, ambition, family, and the human side of design.

    Jess Perry | Electrolight

    In Episode 2 of First Light, I sit down with Jess Perry — a designer and creative leader whose work has helped shape some of Australia’s most thoughtful and immersive architectural environments. As Director of Electrolight Melbourne, Jess has spent years at the intersection of architecture, emotion, and experience, leading projects that use light not simply as illumination, but as a powerful design language. His approach combines technical understanding with a deep sensitivity to atmosphere, materiality, and human connection — qualities that have made him one of the most respected voices in the lighting and design industry. Throughout the conversation, Jess reflects on his career journey, the evolution of lighting design in Australia, and the importance of collaboration between architects, interior designers, engineers, and creatives. We also explore leadership, mentoring emerging designers, the pressure of creative industries, and how great lighting often goes unnoticed — yet completely defines how a space is remembered. From luxury hospitality and residential projects to large-scale public environments, Jess shares the philosophy behind his work and the experiences that have shaped his perspective both professionally and personally. This is First Light with Jess Perry.

    Adam Kane | Adam Kane Architects

    Great architecture often reveals itself quietly — through restraint, clarity, and an understanding of how people actually live. Today’s guest is Adam Kane, founder and director of Adam Kane Architects, a practice known for its thoughtful, highly resolved residential work and a deep respect for context, materiality, and longevity. Adam’s projects are characterised by calm confidence — homes that feel deliberate rather than designed, where light, proportion and detail work together seamlessly. One project in particular, Grey House — Adam’s own home — has resonated widely, offering a rare insight into how an architect designs when the client is themselves, and when every decision becomes both personal and architectural. Beyond the buildings, Adam is also a business owner, navigating the realities of practice while staying true to a clear architectural voice. Today we’ll talk about his journey into architecture, the decision to start his own practice, the thinking behind Grey House, and how he sees the future of residential architecture evolving. I’m pleased to welcome Adam Kane.
