Martyn Lawrence Bullard Debuts Travel-Inspired Lighting for an Invite-Only Collective That Anyone Can Shop

If you like your light fixtures to skew more one-of-a-kind and unique than mass-market, you’re in luck because as of last week, Designer Alliance is officially out in the world and ready for its spotlight—pun intended. Designer Alliance is a brand-new invitation-only collective dedicated to designer-authored lighting. The inaugural collection was designed by none other than designer to the stars Martyn Lawrence Bullard. “I’ve always believed lighting is the jewelry of the home. The final luminous layer that gives a room its character, glamour, and soul,” said Bullard.

Let us just say, the pieces are as incredible as you’d imagine. How, you may ask, do we know that? Well, Homeworthy was at the red carpet launch event in New York City, and we got to see the fixtures in person. The event was held at a speakeasy, which felt especially fitting considering the sumptuous, and dare we say, sexy lighting that was displayed throughout the space—warm Kelvins only.

Before we get into the details of the event, including who was there and the lights on offer, we want to take a moment to delve a little deeper into what Designer Alliance actually is and what it means for people who prefer a more curated look in their homes. Designer Alliance is the brainchild of Bellacor, a premier retailer specializing in luxury lighting.

Designer Alliance was founded on a singular belief: The future of design belongs in the hands of designers. “The coterie was created to give celebrated designers meaningful authorship over the products they create, from concept through execution, rather than simply lending their names to existing programs,” says Paul Adams, CEO of Bellacor. “Each collection will be conceived by a named designer and brought to life with the level of craftsmanship and integrity they demand of their own work,” he adds.
The best part? This is not a trade-only situation.

If you like what you see, feel free to snap up these gorgeous lights before they sell out.
