HOUSTON, Oct. 13, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Visual Comfort & Co. announces a new design partnership with Paris-based designer Verena Brausch, introducing her debut lighting collection for the brand. Drawing on her background in industrial, furniture, and interior design, Brausch brings a distinctive perspective to four product families spanning chandeliers, pendants, wall sconces, and table lamps.

"What drew us to Verena's work was her unique point of view, shaped by her background in industrial and interior design," said Sean Lavin, Chief Design Officer of Visual Comfort & Co. "Her attention to proportion and materials gives each piece a strong visual presence, with the quality of light central to every design." 

Throughout the collection, Brausch contrasts solid and translucent materials, using etched glass and natural alabaster to soften and diffuse the light.

• GLOW combines architectural geometry with soft, diffused light, while its glass dome gives the piece a sculptural, tactile and quietly distinctive character.
• FAUBOURG table lamps are conceived as illuminated sculptures, balancing a softly diffused glass dome with a precise brass or bronze base, giving them a quiet contemporary elegance.
• EVER is a highly sculptural lighting family, combining radial movement and refined proportions with natural alabaster and brass and bronze forms to create a strong architectural presence.
• BOULE is conceived around atmosphere, elegance and repetition, with softly glowing glass forms creating a refined sense of rhythm and movement.

Together, the four series express a shared language of material, proportion and light, while each retains its own distinct character.

"I wanted the collection to bring together noble materials, precision and a strong sense of presence. Lighting is deeply personal and emotional, and each piece is designed to elevate a room in a natural way. It has been incredibly exciting to develop this vision with Visual Comfort and bring it to life as a complete lighting collection," said Verena Brausch.

The Verena Brausch for Visual Comfort & Co. collection debuts at Fall High Point Market, with a Verena Brausch Collection Launch Party on Sunday, October 18 at 3:00 p.m. at Visual Comfort & Co.'s High Point showroom.
