Lighting Live Annual Conference 2025 | Speaker Spotlight 'Kael Gillam'

Kael Gillam (she/they) is a London-based Senior Associate at Hoare Lea, an interdisciplinary firm of engineers and specialist designers. With an educational background in theatre and a professional career in Architectural Lighting that spans the commercial and hospitality, as well as science and research and residential sectors, her designs focus on creating meaningful human-centric experiences and environments.

Alongside her role as a designer, Kael represents the Lighting team in the firm’s Net Zero Carbon network, which promotes education on and implementation of sustainable practices in the construction industry. Through this network, she is championing research in circularity and carbon footprint data modelling to create a better framework for the design and specification of Hoare Lea Lighting’s projects, to make these forward-thinking considerations a standard part of their projects.

Kael's paper 'Designers and data: Untangling EPDs, LCAs, TM66 and TM65.2' will explore the current landscape for environmental data and assess the challenges that the lighting design profession faces in incorporating EPDs and other metrics, such as TM66 and TM65.2, into their specifications.

Lighting Live Annual Conference takes place 18th - 19th June 2025
