Kitchen Lighting Ideas

Article Category: Home Management

Author Name: DK Mills

Lighting your kitchen is one of the most important aspects of a DIY kitchen remodel. Proper lighting should ensure not only that you have enough light to see what you are doing, but also that your kitchen looks welcoming and attractive. There are four types of lighting to consider when looking for kitchen lighting ideas – task or utilitarian lighting for specific tasks, accent lighting that highlights particular working areas, ambient or general lighting for the entire room, and decorative lighting that has no particular function but is part of the overall design of the room. When you design your kitchen, you'll have to incorporate one or more of these kinds of lighting.

Any kitchen regardless how simple it is, can stand out with the help of proper kitchen lighting design. Proper lighting will surely help your kitchen look more professional. It can give an impression that you have spent so much for professional help even though you did not.

Careful planning is essential when designing kitchen lighting ideas. First you have to look at the layout of your kitchen and decide what type of light to use in which area. For example, in which areas will you be doing the most tasks? Will you be dining in your kitchen? For the stove and countertops, for example, bright task lighting using fluorescent tubes is recommended. For the kitchen island, where you will be eating, softer lighting can be used. Ambient lighting is also important in order to make the space look brighter and avoid shadowy areas. One nice touch to the Kitchen Island area is drop-down overhead lighting.... this type of lighting will give the island area a homey feel. Another good idea is to add a small florescent light above the sink. This type of light can be left on at night for wandering kids, and help make dishwashing easier.

Once you've taken care of your utilitarian lighting needs, you can add some dimension to your kitchen with decorative lighting and accent lighting. To illustrate, you can place lights inside a glass cabinet to illuminate glassware and china. You can also install decorative fixtures such as wrought iron lamps and candle stands. Just make sure that you don't overdo it during your DIY kitchen remodel, since too much decorative lighting can make your kitchen look cluttered and busy. Remember that the basic principle in kitchen lighting ideas is to find the balance between functional lighting and lighting for style.
