Kitchens are more than just a place to prepare food, they are a space where family members spend time together, and social spaces to entertain friends and guests. One of the most significant parts of renovating your kitchen is choosing new kitchen cabinets and worktops. While lighting is often an afterthought, it’s best to plan it out at the same time. This is because the layout of your cabinets, appliances, and fittings will affect where lights need to be.

Your kitchen won’t function as it should if you don’t consider lighting design during the planning stage. This should influence the configuration of your units, white goods, furniture, and power sources. It will help you to add the right types of kitchen lighting in the right places, illuminating every area to the desired extent.

There are two types of LED lighting areas: task lighting and ambient lighting.
