The three priorities for Kitchen Lighting are to deliver overall brightness through general lighting, create functionality with task lighting, and provide a visually appealing space with accent lighting. In order to accomplish this task, you should incorporate these three layers of lighting into your space.
You may need one or several types of light fixtures in a room, depending on the layout, size, aesthetic and space available. Here is a checklist of lighting types to consider for a properly lit kitchen:
| GENERAL LIGHTING | TASK LIGHTING | ACCENT LIGHTING |
| Provides lighting for everyday activities | Focused Illumination for work spaces such as counter tops and islands | Highlights a specific area creating a focal point or to set a mood |
|
1. Recessed Lighting Close-to-ceiling Lighting (Flushmounts & Semi-Flushmounts) 2. Controls & Wall Plates |
3. Island Lighting Mini Pendants Track & Monorail Lighting 4. Undercabinet Lighting Dimmers, Controls & Wall Plates |
