Today on the show, Mr. Alex Tate's, Alex Alonso and I discuss the evolution of interior design, exploring how technology, client expectations, and personal vision shape today's industry from AI integration to marketing strategies and maximalist design philosophy, this conversation examines how designers adapt to market shifts while staying true to their creative ethos. I thoroughly enjoyed my conversation with Alex for a litany of reasons and I'll share some of them with you, but first, know this… And, you are going to hear it. Alex is an unapologetic Maximalist. And as we begin to discuss it, you will hear him launch in about the idea of clutter and then demonstrate how it's not what people say something is but what a talented creative can do with an idea. Listen for that because it was a really fun exchange. Here are some of the other ideas you will hear more about in the following conversation. Designer Resources Pacific Sales Kitchen and Home.

Dallas and Amanda Jenkins, creators of The Chosen, join the Perrys to talk about how God used one movie's box-office failure to bring about the now globally popular television series about the life of Jesus. The Jenkins talk about bringing their “five loaves and two fish” to God, letting Him handle the multiplication, and creating from a place of dependence rather than success. They discuss what it looks like to lead with authenticity, use “sanctified imagination” while staying true to Scripture, and keep their focus on honoring the character of Jesus. The conversation also covers how they handle criticism of their handling of Scripture and how they view The Chosen as both creative work and ministry.This Episode Is Sponsored By:https://www.covenanteyes.com/perrys/ —  Get Victory by Covenant Eyes FREE for 30 days with promo code PERRYShttps://liberty.edu/Perry — Get your application fee WAIVED when you start your future with Liberty University today!Stream The Chosen on Prime Video or in The Chosen app: https://www.thechosen.tv/en-usConnect with the Jenkinshttps://www.instagram.com/dallas.jenkins/https://www.instagram.com/amandaleejenkins/Check out other Bible study resources and children's books from The Chosen: https://www.amazon.com/stores/TheChosen/page/DA0F6571-B17A-41C3-8A25-5882393DA109Scripture referencesJohn 15:2 Subscribe to the Perrys' newsletter: https://withtheperrys.myflodesk.com/zhfus4jx1sJoin Preston's discipleship community for men: https://www.patreon.com/PrestonPerry/membershipTo support the work of the Perrys, donate via PayPal: https://paypal.me/withtheperrysShop BOLD Apparel: boldapparel.shop Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

This special two-part episode features Roman Alonso of Commune and David Calligeros of Remains Lighting in two distinct conversations exploring origins, philosophy, and the meaning of design partnerships.

TimberTech - Real wood beauty without the upkeep LOME-AI.com, simple, inexpensive, text to video harnessing the power of AI to grow your firm, beautifully. From salvaging antiques to designing timeless interiors, David and Roman share stories of growth, collaboration, and craft. What began as a single interview turned into a richer double feature—a master class in design values, sustainability, and the essential philosophies behind two influential studios. Part One: David Calligeros, Remains Lighting Origins and Influences: From antiques and architectural salvage to a design career shaped by an arts-influenced mother and an engineer father. The Birth of Remains: Starting in Manhattan in 1995, evolving from antiques into lighting design. Engineering Meets Art: Marrying technical precision with artistic intuition. Custom Work & Collaborations: Partnering with Commune, Robert A.M. Stern, Matthew Fisher, and others. IP, Dupes & Authenticity: Protecting design through integrity, storytelling, and craftsmanship. Sustainability & Craft: LEED Gold Brooklyn factory, solar array, stormwater recycling, and green production practices. Business & Market Challenges: Navigating the 2008 crash, tariffs, and the value of US-based manufacturing. Philosophy: Design as a question-driven, ethical practice rooted in long-term value and collaboration. Link: Remains Lighting Part Two: Roman Alonso, Commune Origins and Career Path: From Caracas to Miami, Boston, New York, and LA; a career spanning publishing, fashion, and interiors. Formation of Commune Studio (2003): Built around collaboration, essentialism, and quality. Studio Philosophy: Purposeful, small by design, focused on meaningful work and enduring value. Influences: Latin American upbringing, Isaac Mizrahi, Lisa Eisner, and lessons from fashion and editorial worlds. Product Development: Solving real design problems, prototyping in-house before release. Collaboration: Strategic partnerships (including Remains Lighting) to ensure usability and quality. Personal Philosophy: Stoicism, fairness, ethical production, and acknowledging imposter syndrome. Evolution of the Firm: Scaling deliberately—growing reach through products and partnerships while keeping the studio intimate. Quotes: “Good design shouldn't be a privilege—it's a right.” “Design is about editing, listening, and creating solutions that people might not even know they need.” This episode illustrates how partnerships in design aren't just about collaboration—they're about shared values, craft, and philosophy. By hearing these conversations separately, you'll gain insights into two distinct but complementary approaches to design, sustainability, and creativity. So much to take in. This was a master class on how to structure, nurture and grow design partnerships. Make sure you check the show notes for links and notes about all of the topics covered.

When I spoke with Scott Richler, co-founder of Gabriel Scott, I quickly realized his design journey wasn't linear but layered. With a background in architecture, jewelry and fashion Scott brings that same sense of structure and detail into furniture and lighting design. He explained how the precision of jewelry—where every small move influences the whole—mirrors his architectural training, allowing him to think critically on both macro and micro scales. Lighting was a major theme. Scott and I discussed how LED technology has completely shifted design possibilities, freeing designers from the limitations of older systems. No longer about blasting a room with light, the new approach is about using illumination strategically—whether it's enhancing a hospitality experience or subtly shaping a residential atmosphere. We also tackled the often-overused labels in design—“modern,” “traditional,” and everything in between. Scott pushed back on the idea of rigid categories, noting that Gabriel Scott's pieces live comfortably in both sleek penthouses and classic homes. The goal, he said, is timeless versatility, not chasing a label. Scott also opened up about his creative process. His team of artisans develops intricate parts that are refined enough to feel bespoke but adaptable enough to be assembled by everyday people—a kind of design language built for universal assembly. It's jewelry thinking applied to lighting and furniture. Of course, no conversation about product design is complete without addressing knockoffs. Scott acknowledged the frustration of seeing his work duplicated but emphasized the importance of strong contracts, local representation, and participating in trade shows like Milan Design Week to establish authenticity. We wrapped up talking the Triforium project in Los Angeles, reflecting on how lighting has evolved from mechanical systems in the 1970s to today's AI-driven adaptability. For Scott, it's less about chasing technology for its own sake, and more about how design—whether jewelry, furniture, or lighting—creates lasting experiences.  Designer Resources Pacific Sales Kitchen and Home.

And that is where I lost the connection with Scott. He was in Ibiza. And the WI-FI dropped, so I thought it would be fun to conclude this conversation with a brief chat with the founders of the Triforium Project. YACHT, Experimental Pop, and Reimagining the Triforium The Los Angeles-based band YACHT (Young Americans Challenging High Technology) has built its reputation on pushing the boundaries of music, technology, and performance art. Founded by Jona Bechtolt and later joined by Claire L. Evans, YACHT blends electronic pop, punk energy, and conceptual art into a body of work that often doubles as cultural critique. With albums like See Mystery Lights and Chain Tripping—the latter created with the help of AI-generated lyrics and sounds—the band has consistently explored the edges of where music meets innovation. One of their most intriguing projects is their involvement with the Triforium, a massive 1970s public art installation in downtown Los Angeles. Originally envisioned as a “polyphonoptic” sculpture, the Triforium contains 1,494 glass prisms designed to light up in sync with computer-generated music. Despite its futuristic ambitions, technical limitations of the era kept the piece from reaching its full potential, and it was largely dismissed as a failed experiment in civic art. Enter YACHT. Alongside a group of artists and technologists, the band helped spearhead efforts to restore and reinterpret the Triforium for a new generation. They worked on updating its outdated systems with modern technology,

In a wide-ranging conversation, I sat down with Renée Gaddis, founder of Renée Gaddis Interiors, to explore Florida's distinct design influences, the evolving role of designers in storm-prone regions, and the business of luxury interiors in uncertain times. Speaking from Naples, Florida, Gaddis compared her region's design sensibilities to other parts of the state, noting a blend of Midwestern, European, and Southern traditions. While many of her clients lean toward transitional or traditional styles, she observed that Miami remains more open to modern aesthetics. Designer Resources Pacific Sales Kitchen and Home.

The discussion turned to real estate trends fueled by the pandemic, which brought an influx of new homeowners to Florida. Gaddis shared how this surge, combined with a major hurricane, reshaped her approach to client selection and project scope. She emphasized her boutique model, strong referral base, and commitment to seamlessly integrating interiors with exteriors to embrace Florida's indoor-outdoor lifestyle. On the financial side, she addressed rising costs and tariffs that have altered project budgets, leading to value engineering and sourcing U.S.-made products. Gaddis also reflected on the importance of partnerships with trades and vendors, especially during supply chain volatility, while advocating for transparent communication to maintain trust. The conversation also touched on resilient building practices in storm-prone regions. Gaddis highlighted lessons learned from past hurricanes, from identifying flawed hurricane-rated windows to designing with better drainage, elevated platforms, and even safe rooms. Her insights underscored the need for long-term sustainability in luxury projects. Beyond design, Gaddis shared her family's advocacy journey with the American Heart Association, inspired by her daughter's early diagnosis and treatment. This personal commitment, alongside her professional expertise, reflects her philosophy that resilience—whether in design or life—is built through experience, adaptability, and care.

Welcome to the Convo By Design Icon Registry episode for the month of July, 2025. This month's inductee is an icon, for sure, an international luminary and someone who has been as down to earth and kind as he could possibly be. I shouldn't have to say that. Right? But, that is one of the things that differentiates Martyn Lawrence Bullard from many, really most creatives who have achieved Bullard's level of success. I sat down with Martyn at the SOHO Home showroom on Melrose Boulevard in West Hollywood right before the 10th anniversary party for Convo By Design. SOHO Home, previously the Rose Tarlow showroom, with it's storied history and exceptional lighting made for a truly unique experience for me and I hope that is one of the things you pick up in this conversation with the September 2025 inductee of the Convo By Design Icon Registry. The Convo By Design Icon Registry is presented by Pacific Sales Kitchen and Home, a Best Buy company. Pacific Sales is comprised of long time professionals who love design and architecture as much as you do. Which is why it is so fitting that they present this recognition of some of the worlds greatest design talent every month here on Convo By Design.  Designer Resources Pacific Sales Kitchen and Home.

Understand history and you will understand today. How marginalized groups serve a purpose. Some common sense Roman history applies. Is that God really represent love? What if all trannies are still his children? All life is created in his image. The Crusades meant heads on pikes for unbelievers. Once country swore to irradicate the invented enemy of Christianity. When faith is not iron clad, conversations won't happen. When hypothetical situations offend people. Understanding connections to God. Trans just want to belong while they look for a purpose. Popping the cherry of Solidarity.inc. Check out those 990's. How protest groups are funded. Deep pockets and global connections. The program to push forward transgenders. There are groups calling themselves delegations, in every state. They are jumping behind free speech. Understand how crazy they are and how Charlie was evil. Most of these are academics. Separating wheat and chaff. Good Christians don't shun people. They understand, and then pray for compassion and grace.

This episode is dedicated to American psychiatrist and author Robert Jay Lifton, who recently passed after decades of research into the psychology of totalism. “Doctrine over person” is one of Lifton's eight criteria of thought reform; it's widely considered to be a defining characteristic of the cultic headspace. But how exactly does it function? Meet T Brown. In 1997, T entered a Sufi group as a free-thinking, openly gay man. But he eventually discarded his personal eccentricities, married a woman, and became a public defender of the group's apolitical, anti-vax ideology. In this episode, T shares how his life became “occupied” by the guru's teachings. When the pandemic gave him the space he needed, T finally separated from the group after 23 years, and the journey of cult recovery began. Five years later, T is completing his doctoral dissertation and is debuting the performance of "A Cult Piece" at the Melbourne Fringe Festival. He tells us how the cult mindset impacted his choices, his family, and his sense of self. And he shares what it was like coming out of the cult (and to his wife) to re-enter the real world, free and disoriented. This episode is a deep dive into the paradox that often defines the journey of cult recovery. The end is just the beginning. Embodiment informs critical thinking. Art imitates life. And audacious self-acceptance slowly and steadily dispels a once all-consuming ideology.Learn more about T Brown by visiting his QuitYourCult YouTube channel.Support the showThe stories and opinions shared in this episode are based on personal experience and are not intended to malign any individual, group, or organization.Join The Deeper Pulse at Patreon for weekly bonus episodes + other exclusive bonus content.

British neo-soul breakout Elmiene sat down with Majic 102.1's Madd Hatta to share his unbelievable rise from an Oxford kid with no formal training to working with legends like Raphael Saadiq and No I.D. After a D'Angelo cover blew up overnight, he found himself fielding calls from record labels and carving out a place in soul's rich lineage. With his mixtape Heat the Streets dropping September 5th and an album on the way, Elmiene opens up about humility, history, and carrying the torch for the next generation of soul.

Sheryl Underwood lit up the Houston airwaves with Madd Hatta on Majic 102.1, keeping it real about life after *The Talk* and her new “I Need a Job Tour.” The comedian, known for her unfiltered wit, admitted she's back to grinding—auditioning, developing projects, and hitting the stage with purpose. More than stand-up, her tour doubles as a movement, with each show supporting local charities, including five in Houston. Mixing sharp humor with straight talk on politics, community, and culture, Underwood reminded fans she's still the same fiery “Def Jam Cheryl,” only now she's hustling harder, giving back, and turning comedy into a cause.
