As you get ready to change your kitchen with an update or a remodel, one of the areas that you may be looking to change may be the lighting and electrical work. Without the right lighting, a kitchen can almost seem unfunctional. Not only are there several tasks that you are trying to complete in the kitchen, but the right lighting in your kitchen can really accentuate the design of the space. There are several different types of kitchen lighting you can choose from for your home. Simon Electric is here to explain a bit about them, and what they are used for.

Kitchen Lighting Design Ideas

Following are the most common lighting fixtures that are put in the kitchen space:
– Recessed Lighting: This is one of the best ways to get the general lighting you need in your kitchen. A recessed light can also double as task lighting if the placement is just right as well. When choosing a recessed light, make sure you choose the right trim around the light. Baffle trim is often chosen because it helps to reduce glare.
– Directional Recessed: If you need your recessed lighting to illuminate a specific area in your kitchen, you can choose directional trims for your recessed lighting to help you in areas where certain tasks are performed.
– Pendant Lighting: The possibilities are literally endless when it comes to pendant lights. This is a great way to add design to your kitchen. These lighting options can become an architectural element in any kitchen space and provide ample lighting for the space directly below them.
– Under Cabinet Lighting: Nothing will highlight your cabinets like some cabinet lighting. This can be achieved using led light strips or puck lights which can be installed using dimmer switches so that you have the ability to change the amount of light the shines from the cabinets.
– Track Lights: If you want to have a completely customizable lighting option in your kitchen, you may want to choose track lighting. You will have the ability to change the direction and placement of the bulbs whenever you want as the bulbs are on a track and can be moved. They are a great addition to any modern kitchen.
– Dining Fixtures: Most people want to have a fixture over the table in their dining room. You want to choose a fixture that works well with the other lighting designs that you have chosen for the rest of the kitchen.
