Lamps for the kitchen – inspiration for gorgeous light
LAMPS FOR THE KITCHEN
The base light is often created using a ceiling lamp or pendant. These lamps create the core light in the room that lights up the room itself while contributing to the atmosphere in the kitchen.
WORK LIGHT:
It’s essential to have a good work light in the kitchen, as this is the light you use when preparing food on the kitchen counter. The work light needs to illuminate the workspace effectively with a bright glow and the right colour temperature. The work light can come from above or straight ahead, but it’s important to avoid shadows to maximise the effectiveness of the light. Work lights should be placed above the kitchen counter, stove, and sink.
ATMOSPHERIC LIGHT:
Contributes a cosy touch of character that can often be combined with the base light using a light dimmer. Create a fantastic atmosphere in your kitchen with an atmospheric light.
Pendant for the kitchen – classic, retro, or modern?
When it comes to the kitchen table and pendants, remember to keep the suspension height in mind. As a rule of thumb, lamps need to be 75-80 cm above the tabletop to ensure the best work light. To avoid shadows, measure the width of the surface and divide by 3. Use the result to measure out from the wall—this is where the pendant should hang to avoid shadows. Of course, this is only a general piece of advice, and it could very well be that your home needs a different setup. You’re always welcome to get in touch for advice about mounting and choice of lamp.
It's a good idea to mount multiple lamps next to each other a little gap between them, as this ensures a uniform glow. There are many options when it comes to using pendants in the kitchen, and they’re available in all sorts of styles.
