Kitchen Lighting

Getting it right.

Getting your kitchen lighting right is really important as it effects the overall look and feel of the room. Introducing as much natural light as possible with windows and glazed doors are a good way to introduce natural light into your kitchen. This helps to increase the size of the room and reduce those electricity bills!⠀

Apart from natural light, there are three main types of kitchen lighting:

Task Lighting.

Task lighting is the most practical of the lights. It can be ceiling down lights or under unit lights. Getting it right can make such a huge positive difference to the practicality of your kitchen. The working areas such as worktops, sink and cooker areas benefit most from Task lighting, and if it is done right, it will make your life a lot easier when cooking, prepping, washing up or carrying out other tasks in your kitchen. It looks great too!

Accent lighting.

Accent lighting is used to highlight and draw attention to certain areas of your room. Any areas you would like to accentuate then add some accent lighting to highlight it. It can create points of interest within a room and highlight them, giving your kitchen that wow-factor!
