Lighting Tips For The Kitchen

Transform your kitchen, the heart of your home, into a versatile space that seamlessly combines style and functionality through strategic lighting choices.

Tip 1: Over Island/Peninsula Lighting

Elevate your kitchen’s aesthetics by selecting the perfect lighting for your island or peninsula. This lighting choice not only serves as a style statement but also influences the overall ambiance. Ensure that the lighting complements your countertop finish to optimize light dispersion. Maintain an optimal height of 30-32 inches above the counter to prevent obstructed views and minimize glare.

Tip 2: Under Cabinet Lighting

Enhance your kitchen’s visual appeal while providing focused illumination on your countertop surfaces with under cabinet lighting. Under cabinet lighting offers both aesthetics and practicality. Plus, you can control it separately, reducing energy consumption by eliminating the need for additional light sources.
