Designer Grow Light Set Up

I'm interested in growing some camellia and lemon trees indoors and will need to supplement the light with grow lights, but they are all soooo ugly!

I have some beautiful planters and wonder if anyone can help me design a lighting system that is functional and attractive?

I was thinking of using an attractive clamp light like this one:

on the top edge of the pot, or maybe one with a longer neck to reach higher up.

Then I would hang a pendant light from the ceiling and put grow lightbulbs in the light fixtures.

I'm wondering if the wattage on the grow lightbulbs will be too high for regular light fixtures?

Any ideas or suggestions?

Thanks!
Lucy

(BTW They will receive natural light and I have made some attractive mylar mirrors to place on the wall behind them to help reflect more light as well.)
