What color light is best for kitchens?
For kitchens, a bright and neutral white light is usually considered the best choice. This color temperature delivers a crisp and vibrant illumination that enhances visibility and makes it easier to read recipes, work with knives, and cook. Since kitchens are the heart of your home, we recommend using bulbs that offer various shades of white light — or even color — to match the mood of the day.
How do I lighten up a dark kitchen?
There are many ways to brighten a dark kitchen. You can add or optimize your current light fixtures, use brighter bulbs with higher lumens and cooler color temperatures, install under-cabinet lighting to help with focused tasks, maximize natural light through unobstructed windows, or clean fixtures so dust and debris doesn’t accumulate and reduce brightness.
What is the best lighting for a kitchen island?
Kitchen islands are a multifunctional space that need lighting that is just as multifunctional. Pendant lights are a popular choice because they provide both functional lighting and decorative appeal. Track lighting is another favorite because their adjustable heads can highlight different work zones or focal points. Ultimately, the best lighting for a kitchen island is one that suits your needs and style.
