Hallway/Corridor

In a kitchen, you want lighting in three key areas: task lighting, ambient lighting, and accent lighting. Task lighting should be focused on areas where you work the most, like countertops, the stove, and the sink. Recessed or under-cabinet lighting works well here. Ambient lighting, like ceiling fixtures or pendants, fills the room with overall light, while accent lights (such as LED strips or sconces) can highlight features like shelves or islands. Proper placement ensures your kitchen is both functional and welcoming.

For a kitchen sink, you typically need around 300-500 lumens. This provides enough brightness to see clearly while washing dishes or prepping food. If you choose LED lighting, you can achieve this with about 5-7 watts. A pendant or small recessed light directly above the sink will focus on the light where you need it most. This ensures your workspace is bright without causing glare or overly harsh lighting.

When choosing a light for over your kitchen sink, you want something functional but also stylish. A pendant light is a great option, offering both focused light and design appeal. Choose a material that complements your kitchen, like glass or metal. Make sure the light is bright enough (300-500 lumens) and positioned directly over the sink for the best coverage. Whether you go for a sleek modern look or a more rustic style, we have the perfect options to suit your needs.

Both 3000K and 3500K work well for kitchen lighting, but the choice depends on the atmosphere you want. 3000K offers a warm, inviting light that’s great for creating a cozy feel, perfect for open kitchens or areas where family and guests gather. 3500K is a bit cooler and provides a brighter, more neutral light, ideal for workspaces like countertops. If you want a balance between warmth and clarity, 3500K might be the better option. Both options work beautifully with our pendant and recessed lights.

The ideal height for pendant lights over a kitchen island is about 30 to 36 inches above the surface. This gives you enough clearance to work while still offering ample light. If you have high ceilings, you can adjust by adding 3 inches for every extra foot of ceiling height. With this setup, the pendants won’t obstruct your view, but they’ll still provide excellent lighting for the entire island.

This depends on the style you’re going for, but contrasting the island with your cabinets can create a stunning focal point. If your cabinets are dark, a lighter island can brighten up the room. Conversely, if your cabinets are light, a darker island offers depth and visual interest. No matter your choice, our lighting options—whether pendants, chandeliers, or recessed lights—will help highlight your island beautifully.

For a 7-foot kitchen island, two or three pendant lights are recommended for optimal lighting and balance. If you prefer a sleeker look, two larger pendants will work well. For a more dramatic effect or to add extra brightness, three smaller pendants evenly spaced can create symmetry and light up the island perfectly. The key is to keep the spacing even and consistent, ensuring both functionality and style.
