One of the most overlooked aspects of kitchen design is lighting and the effect it can have on your overall design and aesthetic. Our clients are often unsure about how to incorporate lighting that will meet their needs for the daily use of the space and create ambience to define areas and highlight features. There are four types of lighting to consider and these include task lighting, ambient lighting, accent lighting and decorative lighting. Confused? You are not alone!
Our lighting choices can help to further compliment our chosen style whether they be indictive of an era or contemporary. Consider carefully how you will utilise the areas of your kitchen and create a lighting plan that is reflective of the way in which you live to maximise both the form and function of the space. Other things to think about are the size and scale of the lighting, the lumen output and whether you prefer warm light or white light.
