Kitchen Lighting: Creating the Perfect Kitchen

It is often said that you can learn a lot about the home owner and their lifestyle by their kitchen. It is considered to be the heart of the home.

A kitchen is one of the most important features for buying and selling of a home so a well designed lighting scheme will add a lot of value to your home.

If you have been thinking up reasons as to why you should pay attention to your kitchen lighting, well there are plenty of reasons to do so. It is a place where friends and family gather around to share meals, conversations and celebrating holidays. This is a place where you can connect and reconnect with a common thread as you know people love eating food. Therefore, the right lighting can do wonders to this living space and add a whole new dimension to it as well.

Here are a few ways in which you can add stylish and functional lighting in your kitchen:

Sink lighting is a great way for directing light over this area and you can turn it on or off whenever you need it.

Under cabinet lighting is a very effective way of lighting up your counter tops and provides excellent task lighting while you prepare food for breakfast, lunch and dinner.

If you have space above your upper cabinets then lighting in this area will create a great atmosphere and is great when you don’t want all the other lights on at the same time.

Led pot lights installed in the ceiling placed in front of the upper kitchen cabinets so they cast light on the counter tops, is a very effective way of lighting up your kitchen. This is very popular.

Island pendant lighting is another type of lighting that can be very complimentary to the rest of your kitchen’s lighting scheme and it will provide enough light to work, chat, cook, and eat. 

Nook lighting could be added. This way, you will be able to regulate the lights to create the perfect ambiance for any occasion.
