Illuminati

Kelly Wearstler is redesigning the world one product at a time. Furniture, fabrics, dinnerware, jewelry, carpet and even chocolate bars crowd her resume, and now the L.A.-based design mogul adds lighting to the list. She has teamed up with Houston-based luxury lighting manufacturer Visual Comfort for a 60-piece collection composed of contemporary pendants, chandeliers, ceiling mounts, sconces and floor and table lamps in mixed metals, stones and unusual textures. The look is totally Wearstler, with warm brass and carved bronze; rich natural quartz, alabaster and fractured glass; and geometric and sculptural styles, such as her Cubist and Cleo collections, which play off all the angles. This collaboration is a good fit — the 28-year-old Visual Comfort also produces lighting for some of the most influential names in design, including Aerin Lauder, Alexa Hampton, Bill Blass and Ralph Lauren, and in Texas, J. Randall Powers. $275 to $7,350, in Dallas: at Laura Lee Clark, 1515 Slocum St., 214.265.7272; in Houston: at Circa Lighting, 2427 Westheimer Road, 713.526.4100.
