Demystifying Kitchen Lighting

Demystifying Kitchen Lighting


Kitchen lighting
doesn’t need to be a complex matter, but it does require planning. “The most common mistake people make is trying to light their entire kitchen with one fixture centered in the ceiling,” says Randall Whitehead, a lighting designer in San Francisco, and author of Residential Lighting: A Practical Guide.

Practical guides for kitchen lighting call for utilizing several layers–task lighting, ambient lighting, accent lighting and decorative lighting with a cohesion and smooth transition of each illuminating setting.


Task lighting
 may be as simple as adding a kitchen island light or a set of pendant lights to a workspace area.  Capitol Lighting has a fantastic selection of ambient lighting and accent lighting to complete your kitchen lighting design.
