[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Within the lighting<\/strong> universe, also the kitchen is a challenging room as its illumination shifts between technical and decorative lights<\/strong>. For this reason, today we will go through some practical advice<\/strong> to illuminate a modern kitchen just like a specialist would do.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

How to illuminate your kitchen: giving value to important elements<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

My first word of advice is to choose the most significant focus points<\/strong> of your kitchen and then imagine how you would like to emphasize them with the help of lighting items. Let\u2019s say, for example, that you have a kitchen with a central island unit, an element that recently has really become a must-have even when spaces are not wide. In this case you will have to choose an elegant and impressive design chandelier<\/strong> that can exalt your modern kitchen even more.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”106482″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center”][vc_single_image image=”106485″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]If instead you are looking for a more sober style<\/strong>, yet still tailormade, the right selection could become a series of pendant modules<\/strong> which, placed along the length of the island, illuminate and also furnish the room<\/strong> at the same time.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”76791″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center”][vc_single_image image=”76792″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Another interesting alternative is to choose some ceiling lamps<\/strong> that add value<\/strong> to the area where we place them, yet without being too intrusive. This is a good choice should we want to focus our attention<\/strong> on other areas of the kitchen, such as the table<\/strong> or the living room<\/strong>, when considering an open space.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”79130″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center”][vc_single_image image=”106488″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

How to illuminate your kitchen: defining the dining table<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

Another significant aspect<\/strong> of a kitchen certainly is the area around the table<\/strong>, which I believe really looses much of its scenic impact without a chandelier. In this case there are no right and no wrong choices for the chandelier, however, we must keep in mind some rules<\/strong>. The important thing is that the chandelier is proportioned to the table on top of which it will be installed and that it is compliant with minimum heights, <\/strong>that is starting from 70 cm from the table top. Moreover, do not forget that it must be in accordance with the environment<\/strong> where you will install it, both as for the materials as well as for the style.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”106492″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center”][vc_single_image image=”106495″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]In this example there is a beautiful modular chandelier<\/strong>, with many elements that create a game of heights and reflections<\/strong> and that emphasize the colours of the surrounding space.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”106498″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center”][vc_single_image image=”106501″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]In this other example instead, we see a very elegant horizontal element<\/strong>, with simple yet evocative shapes, that perfectly recalls the style of the open space where it is placed<\/strong>.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

How to illuminate your kitchen: the importance of general lighting<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

Just like as for any house environment, in the kitchen too we must think about a good general basic lighting<\/strong>. Such room will actually need both lighting spots that give personality<\/strong> to the space but also those lights that make it bright<\/strong>. For this purpose we can use a series of spotlights<\/strong>, embedded into the false ceiling, or else directional for the passageways or even the classical strip led in the false ceilings, that offers a diffused light.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Now we saw that there are so many options, however, with these essential indications<\/strong> you\u2019ll be able to think and decide on your own about the lighting of your kitchen<\/strong> without being afraid to make a mistake.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Barbara – Baliz Room <\/strong><\/p>\n
